Atypical Villanelle

Atypical Villanelle

This villanelle is atypical;

I’m presently mentally, physically, sick

of being politically lyrical,

and as boringly predictable,

as a pony with a singular trick;

this villanelle is atypical;

an attempt at being uncynical;

a breakaway, if you will, from the tic

of being politically lyrical;

and while it may be neither mystical,

romantic, nor especially slick,

this villanelle is atypical;

decidedly apolitical,

a nineteen line ramble, minus the kick

of being politically lyrical;

no left, right, middle, no ridicule;

of blue, red, yellow, not even a lick!

this villanelle is atypical,

of being politically lyrical.
