Consistency

a villanelle

By Jada FergusonPublished 9 months ago Updated 9 months ago 1 min read

I have known nothing but this

Its' projections manipulate my vision

A companion that lives to reminisce

-

It is a perpetual deafening, convulsing hiss

Mangling my eardrum with incision after incision

I have known nothing but this

-

A presence that detects and then repels bliss

By injecting and then procreating derision

A companion that lives to reminisce

-

A sourness thickens the air without remiss

Mimicking the bile with precision

I have known nothing but this

-

Regret dangles me over our abyss

One that was forged with years of collaborative revision

I have known nothing but this

A companion that lives to reminisce

Villanelle
