Murdering the Bard

*Disclaimer: I am not actually criticizing him, no matter what it sounds like; I like Shakespeare. I'm just making fun of him.

SHAKESPEARE IN THE SKY WITH SONNETS

Picture thyself but a face in a mirror,
Whose image is found alone in the face
Of thy misbegotten and ill-treated offspring,
Who, if he looks different, is thought a disgrace.

Hideous contrast of youth and old age,
Remembering what you have lost.
Look for thy visage - behold it move out - he is gone.

See yourself renewed in your children?
Shakespeare didn't have many children
Sonnet number 3 sounds like nonsense

This verse was based on Sonnet 3, which talks about how a person's beauty is preserved through his/her children.
