NaPoWriMo 2019 Day 22 + Poems in April Day 22: My Vicious Villanelle: 1000% Done


At this stage of the game, I'm done with rules
I'm tired of word counts and prompts of the day
I've decided that rules are for fools

I could write about my family jewels
But they're all plastic anyway
At this stage of the game, I'm done with rules

I could create something with power tools
With drills and chain saws I could play
I've decided that rules are for fools

I could see about going back to school
But I'd probably just cut class anyway
At this stage of the game, I'm done with rules

I don't want to be so mean and cruel
But I must say, for the end of prompts I pray
I've decided that rules are for fools

The calendar says that the end is in sight
So though I wish I could quit I guess I'll stay
At this stage of the game, I'm done with rules
I've decided that rules are for fools

Notes:
I've always said that I write two kinds of poems: dark and silly.
I'm a despicable liar.
I actually write three kinds of poems.
Dark, silly, and snarky.
Guess which kind this is.

NaPoWriMo 2019: Day 6: Possible Maybe Somewhere Else

think
almost
anything
is quite possible
although it probably isn't
going to be possible here in the lame-o-sphere

Note:
The form I used is a Fibonacci. It wasn't quite as awful to create as it initially sounded like it would be.

Aubade for the Night Shift Worker


Aubade for the Night Shift Worker

Morning has broken, and it’s time to leave thee, oh Work
The sun is shining and all I want to do is crawl into my tomb
I can’t call what we have love
But it’s sure as hell a long-term relationship
Another 20 years and I can finally call it quits
I’m gonna leave you

~Helena~
