Perhaps a future episode of the History of Grob can focus on the fact that the Grobians were the first people to write badly well. The rest of us are just aping them with various levels of success, or, in the cases of those who are better apers, aping them with various levels of failure.
You, sir, would be the ape-x of those apers. Well done
Excellent sonneteering. It’s a demanding but sublime form, is it not?
