Wonderful poem David. I've never tried to write a Villanelle although I've seen you and Ronberge both write them....nice style. Maybe one day I'll try. Thanks for the inspiration. Sincerely, Mary

When I'm obsessing over something.. it is time to write a villanelle. I believe the repetition helps to create a feeling of either obsession or desperation. If you have an obsessive sounding sonnet couplet, you can probably make that into a villanelle. In fact.. I've never tried that before.. it just occured to me. I'll go try that now.
