Even shitty highschool can write a sonnet.

I think you know that writing isn't cake,
Except in that it always is a lie.
Whatever authors pen gets called a fake,
And naught gets past the Google's sentry eye.
But dare thee I, OP to find the source
Of this, a sonnet penned for thee and thine.
Comparatively it could be quite worse
(Though most would hesitate to call it "fine.")
On /lit/ there often lurks a poet proud
whose work you likely wouldn't recognize;
It is identity we should enshroud -
The true reward does not lie in the prize.
But never underestimate anon;
Once that occurs - the universe is gone.
Shakespearean sonnets are literally the easiest form to write in English you moron.
I don't even know what a sonnet is

So then you should be able to explain that in a sonnet without much trouble, then...

Iambic Pentameter (da-DA x5)
Three quatrains and a couplet (four lines x3 and then two more)
Rhyme Scheme = ABAB CDCD EFEF GG (the last word of each line has to rhyme with the one after next until the last two, which rhyme with each other, and no repeating rhymes).
That's for a Shakespearean Sonnet, though - Petrarchian is similar, but I don't recall the specific differences.
