Shakespeare wouldn't tweet a sonnet


Shakespeare wouldn't tweet a sonnet,

But you know what he'd do?

He would start up a blog,

Just to share his thoughts with you

With Tumblr as his social media,

The weirdness wouldn't end

Each writer and meme-maker,

They would be his mutual friend

He'd create fanfiction for all,

On a typed out text post

Instead of scratching it down,

'Cause creating is what he enjoyed most

Bear puns and madness,

Running through his head

No one would know,

Where his stories led

Shakespeare wouldn't tweet a sonnet,

280 characters is too short

But his writing would be popular,

With Tumblr as his loyal court
