You want a Villanelle, Vocal.

I swore I never would write a villanelle

I promised myself I would never be lured into that trap

But Vocal has caused me to break my word and fail

*

All this rhyming is a total hell

I don’t want to make a rap

I swore I never would write a villanelle

*

Oh, can you not tell

I would much rather take a nap

But Vocal has caused me to break my word and fail

*

No bull am I trying to sell

And I am not begging for a frappe

I swore I never would write a villanelle

*

I tried so hard not to get on that boat and sail

Vocal knows just how to tempt you or make you look like a sap

But Vocal has caused me to break my word and fail

*

This first poem has driven the nail

Soon, I will have to draw you a map

I swore I never would write a villanelle

But Vocal has caused me to break my word and fail
