Allegory of the Cave Sonnet
The prisoners hang
while others lead lives
What they don't know won't hurt them
or that is what they thought
If you were to take a leap of faith
to find that there is more out there
you may be afraid
but why couldn't it pay off
To try and convince others to follow
then to not know who you are
When a few hours ago they knew you
now thinking your a monster
The cave can be a safe place
but what about all the other space?

ReplyDeleteGreat job on the sonnet, nice and simple. Like everyone else I liked the last couple of lines. Great content
ReplyDeleteYour question at the end is a great one. I am not sure how I would answer it which is what makes it such a great question. Overall, I like it. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteNice Job. It sounds nice even without rhyming. I agree with everyone else here that the last two lines are the best.
ReplyDelete"Now thinking your a monster," might want to fix the, "your," to, "you're."
Not to nag or anything.
