today's villanelle tells us all about conversation about the concentration required to fire tongues at the blankest spot to have caught up amends and tied the loose ends with rhyming friends and all is well and puck says so and the luck has to go out the empty window not the full one for the coming fun will be seen between the curtains and the screen the scream's the thing to ice and the sweat's not nice to fight over but the clovers are lucky and the salts are ducky enough for caramel the wishing well overflowing with glowworm hopscotch the fireflies shining backward into the morning they are laughing at the traffic shaking their tails at the walls and wailing away whiling the hours into minutes and when you spin it at the right angle you hear lace opaque or otherwise the fever between blue eyes surprising at the door carrying nothing wasting into stationery writing letters we'll never forget i have got to take a picture of this plan the prints so blue the carpet so green and in between dreams i am listening to albums solving unstated problems like accidental arithmetic passed on like the check for coffee i could pay in change in the fifties but today it was in the nineties and the fashion is all wrong the styles are unwinding i've heard but what i've got to say about it will not be told twice
