	ROE 1: Poem #3 - Scary Doll Sonnet 
	 
 
FORM: Cornish Sonnet 
 
 
SCARY DOLL SONNET  
 
 
With hollow eyes and cracked porcelain skin 
She’s always watching, knowing just what you do 
Tiny lips twisted into an impish grin 
Dirty dolly clothes, all caked with grime 
Shiny, coal black eyes staring blankly at you 
She sees your every fault, mistake, and crime 
 
Baby doll can look straight into your soul 
Can make you confess, repent, and atone 
Her dark, unsavory gifts you must extol 
Pray for forgiveness and you might be spared 
Or cut so deep, to the very bone 
It’s only a doll, why are you so scared? 
 
With hollow eyes and cracked porcelain skin 
Baby doll can look straight into your soul
