We'll start the thread:

Lamar Wiggins' villanelle, "Provisional Equality" has a consistent rhyme and cyclical nature that resonates with life's rhythms, intertwining harmony in both content and form. We were impressed by his adoption of this style of poetry and found it quite impactful, driving home the powerful theme of the pursuit and right to equality.
