Fading
It seems the world is losing sight,
while stars and sky grow dark.
The will of man is finite.
Blood and bond are seen as blight,
truth as an unseemly mark.
It seems the world is losing sight.
Righteous men have lost their light,
and others frightened fly as larks.
The will of man is finite.
Heros are not born of right,
they change our fate with iron heart.
It seems the world is losing sight.
Evil takes another bite.
Too weak to tighten tourniquet,
the will of man is finite.
**** the masses who take flight
instead of fighting hard and sharp.
It seems the world is losing sight.
The will of man is finite.
Villanelles are hard. Here is my first attempt. I'll probably try a more cheerful one soon and see if it ends up any better.
