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

Excellent!!! 💐👍🏽🏅
Good job MC😊💕
I agree, but I know I won't be lured in. Too many rules to remember. I love how you threw it back in their faces and they gave you Top Story anyway. Well done you.
I haven’t even looked into the challenge yet.. I just know there is a bit of repetition with the structure. Still good of us to give it a go! 😊
Brilliant! Hear you on this! I swore it too...yet here I am thinking about it 😁
