The Plagiaristic New Wave Tarot
Another Plagiaristic Poem Utilising Cards Drawn From My New Wave Tarot Teck, This Time Using The Villanelle Format
Introduction
I was not sure I could actually do this because the villanelle format is based on repetition., so I counted up the actual number of lines in a villanelle and got thirteen which I assume is appropriate for a New Wave Tarot based poem.
Music is "Blasphemous Rumours" by Depeche Mode whose lead singer is Dave Gahan who features in this poem.
This is a rhyming couplet about this villanelle

Anyone who mentions Depeche Mode is my friend. ;-)
I love poems that not only reach me, but that they teach me something. Loved this!
Oh why aren't they in bold letters like your other poems? Regardless, I loved this so much!
Impressive!!!β€οΈβ€οΈπ
