A Villanelle of Unrequited Love

Come my fair lass and lie with me
My need for you I here reveal.
With you is where I long to be.

Let me become your devotee
And with a kiss our love we'll seal.
Come my fair lass and lie with me.

For my heart's lock you've got the key,
My loneliness your love can heal.
With you is where I long to be.

Please listen to my anguished plea,
Before you I abjectly kneel.
Come my fair lass and lie with me.

Don't spurn me with a harsh decree
Or pierce my heart with your spiked heel.
With you is where I long to be.

If need's a crime, hear my appeal.
I'll plea bargain; now here's the deal.
Come my fair lass, just lie to me.
With you is where I long to be.

I've Got the Monday Morning, I Hate My Fucking Job, I Hate My Life, & I Hate the Whole God Damned World and Everyone in it Blues

(A villanelle)

Mankind may all depart to hell,
That evil, proud, rapacious race.
May I live to hear its funeral knell.

To hear the tolling of that bell
Would bring a smile to my glum face.
Mankind may all depart to hell.

I want to be the one to tell
Of mankind's final fall from grace.
May I live to hear its funeral knell.

May they all end up where demons dwell,
With no one there to plead their case.
Mankind may all depart to hell.

It would suit me so very well
To see it gone without a trace.
May I live to hear its funeral knell.

Only their demise my rage will quell,
That mistake of God's, the earth's disgrace.
Mankind may all depart to hell.
May I live to hear its funeral knell.
