Methinks thou hast proportioned it a time,
antique, the finest art form of austere-
be fabled having been, should it appear
as old, and thus redeemed as though sublime.
It tokens the designs on selfless worth,
for mutterings hath ye not encouraged so
a fraction of the time it took bestow,
upon the youthful rage that unlike dearth.
I argue that though archiac what use,
hast thine for being wise for mere excuse.
by Titus Aquila Llewellyn

A wonderfully done poem. It flows very well and is quite powerful from beginning to end. I must ask though; this is no William Shakespeare I am familiar with so is that your pen name here on Allpoetry?
And if so may I inquire as to why you would pick one so widely known when you can write so brilliantly that I would think you'd want one more unique? Just curious here. Thanks.
