Lazy Computer Technicians (Petrarchan Sonnet)

Machinery checks repetitious modes
For often will it be often-often
Often mistakened perfect 'til proven
Neglected by its Maker's lazy codes
The heat and metal combined will melt nodes
Pretentious offers dupe consumers in
To pay for none of what they need. Preachin'!
Preachin' without proof, sell nothing that "owns"
So hence we review experiences
Ink our words on white sheets of papers
Civilize the lumix whose lost senses
Took four digits from accounts: his and hers
Proposing and contesting expenses
Compensate us or face our lawyers


[a,b,b,a,a,b,b,a,c,d,c,d,c,d]
NOTE: Italian Sonnet- 8 lines of a problem, 6 lines of a solution.

Steadfast Faith (English Sonnet)

Dear friend amongst those whom cared much of much
May this find you well and bring you the sun
For clouds have passed from duskly lore spoken
Choking vascular conscience anon
Forget not Isaiah's mark and promise
Stomp on Sophomores by heel scuffed pavement-gold
Thus silver paint curse not Carpenter's craft
To those under His wing: your burdens sold
Pray as Leviticus gospels Hosanna
For sure "...they know not what they do."
But knowing enough frees choices to make
Hence feel Almighty grace, love, and argue
Let none deter you for thier benefit
You are where God wants you to be Spirit
