Perched over her eyes: lovely Frida, erect

among parrots, in the stern petticoats of the peasant,

who painted herself a present-

wildflowers entwining the plaster corset

her spine resides in, that flaming pillar-

this priestess in the romance of mirrors.

Each night she lay down in pain and rose

to the celluloid butterflies of her Beloved Dead,

Lenin and Marx and Stalin arrayed at the footstead.

And rose to her easel, the hundred dogs panting

like children along the graveled walks of the garden, Diego's

love a skull in the circular window

of the thumbprint searing her immutable brow.

    Explanation:

    The only resemblance that the poem above has to an Elizabethan sonnet is the fact that it has 14 lines, as well as the Elizabethan sonnets, since they are written in iambic pentameter, but the Elizabethan sonnets have strict rhyming patterns and have a set number of syllables per line, but in this case the poem does not have a certain number of syllables per line.
