This is how it is:
All sunshine and lollipops…
Held by an iron fist!

This sequence of sonnets, I have always pictured being read aloud by Peter O’Toole. Sadly that cannot now ever be a reality. He was said to have been able to recite all of Shakespeare’s sonnets from memory. I feel we, all of us, are missing something genuinely spectacular in that he never did record them.

Goodnight, sweet prince.
