A Need to Know (Villanelle) I will admit that I am on a quest, Need answers to a question most profound, A need to know simmers within my chest. What can be this question I want addressed; That I'll be seeking like a redbone hound? I will admit that I am on a quest. Thought I had the answer and I was blessed, But it hasn't sunk in, it came unbound, A need to know simmers within my chest. A character named Truman is possessed, He and I surely are on common ground, I will admit that I am on a quest. In my new novel Truman is distressed, His brother lies under burial mound? A need to know simmers within my chest My novel to find answers is the test, Everywhere I look a dunce I am crowned. I will admit that I am on a quest, A need to know simmers within my chest. ©October 18, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (10-03-2018 06:32 PM).] |
