Hate the Villanelle!
Probably the first poetry song I've ever posted here, courtesy of They Might Be Giants.
In a TOTALLY HILARIOUS coincidence, the villanelle is the form that the Poetry 7 are working on this month, and posting for Poetry Friday tomorrow... and let me tell you, there have been moments as we worked on our drafts that we have needed this song!!!
!! I never thought we would get a song about villanelles. Thanks, Greg :-)!
