Today's Napowrimo prompt demanded a loose villanelle and I forced myself to write something more traditional . Here's what I came up with:
o fulfillment, you've tricked me.
songs from a long, gone ocean
salt in a silent wound. see.
send time's cruel arrow to be
caught as an object in motion.
o fulfillment, you've tricked me.
drowned or drowned out of the
lessons of learning, devotion
salt in a silent wound. see.
what's been taught? this lesson is free.
settled in time, no lost emotion
o fulfillment, you've tricked me.
what's left for the time, so little, only
written in words little more than a notion
salt in a silent wound. see.
I never know. never knew. I'm inclined to agree
what little I am never causes commotion
o fulfillment, you've tricked me
salt in a silent wound. see?
