cuckoo's nest

say it again in the form of a villanelle

still not enough to disclose despite

drowning in the black perfectness conquest

going ‘round rounded face and table trite

*

repeatedly showing a sly smile out of spite

the same contradictory words in one sentence egest

still not enough to disclose despite

*

supported by all this modern technology, a wounded wight

her mind lost in vain bequest

going ‘round rounded face and table trite

*

sat around, talked about, no delight

colloquialisms that obfuscate the professed

still not enough to disclose despite

*

then this man came, low-down, his eyes full of blight

pull out all the carefully laid out threads, what a jest

going ‘round rounded face and table trite

*

they both danced in the same team at the campsite

throwing an alien egg out of the nest

still not enough to disclose despite

going ‘round rounded face and table trite
