Very. Even so, be careful what you wish for.
So here I begin. The first was an old one. And yet these two appear to be a sequence and are now so numbered.
Rest well. I think I will.

I find myself awake in the midst of a rather strange “all-nighter.” Technically I am supposed to be doing something else. And, there is yet another thing I would much rather be doing. Instead I find myself writing sonnets. Etudes #12 is posting on the 20th, therefore. I am still revisiting it but it is set to post, probably with a change or two from its present form. Unlike #11, it does not contain any compound rhythmic elements nor internal rhymes.
I would like to get back to my reflections of Shakespeare’s sonnets. I have only done about 7 of them and… I am not getting any younger ; )

Keep pulling those one nighters and writing sonnets. you aren’t getting any young. Shakespeare can wait. he’s dust, you are flesh and blood and your words ring true

That project does comprise my own words though:

The downside of these is that each one does require a fair bit of study, and even if they did not, they still require more time to write than is usual.

Scholarship is itself a thing of beauty. Imperfect scholar that I am, even I recognize that. I am much perturbed by that imperfection. I completed a course on Quantum Mechanics and ended up with a final score of 97. I chafed in that I felt I should have pushed for perfection but fell short. I am embarrassed.

Keep in mind that in Physics, especially, there are insights beyond 100. There is such a thing as perfection, but… even that can be surpassed : )

You are correct. My husband asked me last week, anything new in the world of Physics (he did not dare ask about the world of engineering), I looked at him and said, nope and still can’t prove string theory so go away. I just wanted to prove something to myself, you know? that at 62 I still have a flexible and learning mind.

And what a fine way to do so.
