"I think"         [sonnet-with-jodh]

I think I'll make a book of nothing-but-sonnets
(I think this poem's every line will start
"I think")     a happy hatrack with its bonnets
I think requires abundant headgear       art

I think (in similar fashion) likes compiling
I think   that is   it always needs a thread
"I think" becomes (for instance) no mere filing
I think it functions   very much   instead...

(I think this could seem tedious?   kindly listen
I think you'll find reward from that attention!
I think) ...how does it function? well   the mission
(I think) of repetition   merits mention

I think that "form" (the Sanskrit rupa} shows us
(I think it too means "beauty") what o'erflows us
