Oh dear villanelle You seem to be the death of me Trying to write you, all seems unwell Stubborn mademoiselle You are, only wanting a very specific rhyme scheme Oh dear villanelle Why can’t you be kinder, my voice yells Word play seems a challenge Trying to write you, all seems unwell All lines to end with an –elle? Why not a –eek, or a – yike or an -ouch Oh dear villanelle What a villain –elle You seem to be Trying to write you, all seems unwell I do wish that villanelles Will never be confined to one specific form Oh dear villanelle Trying to write you, all seems unwell

Trying to write a villanelle
Oh dear villanelle You seem to be the death of me Trying to write you, all seems unwell Stubborn mademoiselle You are, only wanting a very specific rhyme scheme Oh dear villanelle Why can’t you be kinder, my voice yells Word play seems a challenge Trying to write you, all seems unwell All lines to end with an –elle? Why not a –eek, or a – yike or an -ouch Oh dear villanelle What a villain –elle You seem to be Trying to write you, all seems unwell I do wish that villanelles Will never be confined to one specific form Oh dear villanelle Trying to write you, all seems unwell
