Sonnet 18 • Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm'd; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd; But thy eternal summer shall not fade Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou growest: So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

If there's just one condensed reader left Who can figure out the abridged alphabet, After you're dead and gone, • In this poem you'll live on! (Howard Moss)

Is it the ultimate love poem? Critic James Boyd-White says: • What kind of love does 'this' in fact give to 'thee'? We know nothing of the beloved’s form or height or hair or eyes or bearing, nothing of her character or mind, nothing of her at all, really. • This 'love poem' is actually written not in praise of the beloved, as it seems, but in praise of itself. Death the beloved, as it seems, but in praise of itself shall not brag, says the poet; the poet shall brag. This famous sonnet is on this view one long exercise in self-glorification • WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Anthony Baldwin’s sonnet parody • • • • Shall I compare thee to a bale of hay? Thou art more dusty and far less neat. Rough winds do toss thy mop about, I'd say, Which looks far worse than hay a horse would eat. Sometime thy squinty eye looks into mine Through stringy, greasy hair that needs be trimm'd, And ne'er a horse had such a stench as thine, As though in stagnant sewers thou hast swimm'd. Thy disgusting image shall not fade; This my tortured mind and soul doth know. O, I should love to hit thee with a spade; And with that blow I hope that thou wouldst go. So long as I can breathe, my eyes can see, And I can run, I'll stay away from thee. . .
