MythAtlas
A Plagiaristic Villanelle Of Lost And Mythical Places

Introduction
I thought I would write a villanelle based on thoughts about mythical and lost lands and places. There are so many, so these are just a few, and obviously the villanelle form will repeat lines but I want it to feel like an adventure in words.
The music is "Naturesway (Earthwatching)" by Thousand Yard Stare from their album "Mappamundi"

Oooo, the only ones that I've heard of are Atlantis, Asgard and Dwarka! Loved your Villanelle!
Epically mythic, Mike!
