A long series of sonnets written over the course of several years. Some say they are connected, others say not. Obviously the first three must be, and clearly formed the basis for the beginning of the story "The Book", but the rest are subject to interpretation.

Many of these sonnets obviously reference any of a number of short stories. See if you can spot them all!

On edit I realized I didn't always get the meter quite right. Oh well. In a few places it was really hard to tell what was intended, but in others it was apparent enough and I still did it wrong.
