A Sonnet by Terrel Hale inspired by the artwork

The sallies of a runaway courage
that is what is called poetic frenzy
and madness driven by the froth to rage
where soul attains its ultimate glory

to submitting beliefs ripped from ancient
opinions and tears along good things and
the rest of universal logic sent
among word pages of divided grand

harmonies of perfectly concordant sounds, an evenness of habits certain
and constant as the principle goal bent
from wisdom’s deliberate winning won

in the softs of inspired textured sound
or sequence that the poem goes round and round.
