The Horizontal

     A crown of sonnets, if I'm remembering right—and please, go look it up on Wikipedia and check me—is a collection of 14 sonnets where the 2nd sonnet starts with the last line of the 1st, the 3rd starts with the last line of the 2nd, the 4th starts with the last line of the 3rd, and so on until the 14th ends with the first line of the 1st.

     We're not doing that here. Howlett has little use for crowns, a subject that I'm sure'll come up during the next 15 weeks. So it's iambic pentameter ahoy!
