I have always wanted to write a villanelle,
Just five tercets and one quatrain;
But it's way too complicated to do it well
Many have done it, so I hear tell,
So I've tried until it drove me insane.
I so badly want to write a villanelle.
If I give up, I will languish in poetic hell,
To notice me, real poets will never deign.
But it's way too complicated to do it well.
I juggle the words, but they never jell,
I turn them all sideways and upright again,
I have always wanted to write a villanelle.
The performance anxiety I just cannot quell
I'm in realio trulio physical pain
But it's way too complicated to do it well.
I scream And I shout and I weep and I yell
Until they can hear me in the next lane,
I have always wanted to write a villanelle.
But it's way too complicated to do it well.
