The Prize Thanks to Quest Books!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Without further ado, let’s congratulate our winner!<\/p>\n

There once was a man from Nantucket
\nDear, this is a sonnet, not a limerick!<\/em>
\nBut I really wished to utilize suck it
\nInappropriate, darling, don’t be a dick.<\/em><\/p>\n

A dick? A dick?? A dick, you say?
\nQuiet now, Grandma is resting her eyes<\/em>
\nI can’t believe my Gram would ever speak this way!
\nWell, dear, grannies can be vulgar too,\u009csurprise!<\/em><\/p>\n

Alas, my heart has been torn asunder
\nMy grandma, pure of thought, is no more
\nHer shining image of moral wonder
\nHath been trampled, by reality, to the floor<\/p>\n

Hush now, youngling, tis all a part of growing up
\nThings are still as they seem, just a bit more f*cked up!<\/em><\/p>\n

That’s right, Erica R’s f bomb dropping sonnet about growing up is the winner! Congrats Erica! A hearty round of applause everyone for both Erica and Greg for sharing such fantastic sonnets! Those two guys really classed up this joint!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
