No Wizard Villanelle I fear One known seems to have dis-apppeared To start this search I volunteer No hocus-pocus it's been made clear Who's not afraid come lend an ear No Wizard Villanelle I fear For such we'll look both far and near If need be out beyond the spheres To start this search I volunteer Come forth we summon thee , appear Gather 'round be of good cheer No Wizard Villanelle I fear No power held or secret dear Will sway this course bound to adhere To start this search I volunteer Come poets from both hemispheres Join this quest of nineteen tiers To start this search I volunteer No Wizard Villanelle I fear [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 03-15-2000).] |

Dear Doc am I glad to see you I’ve been scared here all alone Instead of red I do feel blue The King with his head on a stone I’ve been here scared all alone In this reddish world colourful The King with his head on a stone To see this is rather scareful In this reddish world colourful You dare to challenge the Wizard To hear this is rather scareful Maybe we should ask Scotland Yard You dare to challenge the Wizard What evil will come upon us Maybe we should ask Scotland Yard They may send us Mister E. Fudd What evil will come upon us With you around things will work out They may send us Mister E. Fudd Which would change this story no doubt With you around things will work out Instead of red I do feel blue Which would change this story no doubt Dear Doc am I glad to see you Lady in Red Juliet Romeo, Romeo, where fart art thou |

I found the wizz just the other day And his name he has given way He became ruffryder for awhile But got the boot for his style But never fear he's not too far away But alas, not for long will he stay For he'll be up to his old tricks And will most definetly get the flick If I come across old wizz, I'll surely give a wink But finding that rascally fellow will really make us think. Mmmmm flush him out..... |

Doc Moose, this is a great Villanelle.... I sure hope you find our wizard - He's been behind that curtain for a long thyme now.. This is what he looks like, in case you get a glimpse... For the official Passions record - the wizard of the stute is an original Passions forefather. He is not to be confused with the more recent "Wizzard" who no longer posts at this site..

Wizard Villanelle you should fear ! Your Wiz is no danger to me I shall not let you interfere Your Wizard has disappeared Where is he ? I do ask you ! Wizard Villanelle you should fear ! Behind curtains ! He won’t appear ! Can’t you see, his magic’s left him I shall not let you interfere The Silly-bus is very near I am still Master of the streets Wizard Villanelle you should fear My spell has blinded you severe Scavenge the schoolyard all you want I shall not let you interfere My Silly-bus, syllable dear Too blind to see they are my dear I shall not let you interfere Wizard Villanelle you should fear ! |

I see your pantoum you're raising the stakes First stop Khartoum in this search that we make One should have a full deck this to undertake Playing close to the vest no sweat shall we break Understood are the rules that the house gets it's take I see your pantoum you are raising the stakes Beginning descent buffet and shake A Silly-bus waits on the ground by a lake One should have a full deck this to undertake A thirst for adventure discovery may slake Though the clues leading here all turned out to be fake I see your pantoum you are raising the stakes Airborne once more off tarmac sun baked Full boat one two three kings over jakes One should have a full deck this to undertake We're comin' there Wiz make no mistake From the 'stute we did stage a major outbreak I see your pantoum you're raising the stakes One should have a full deck this to undertake |

Been holding my breath for much too long And now I hear a Yellow Brick song Is that Elton or Nurse C Who is it that's kissing me I believe things have really gone wrong This ain't the 'Stute, nor is it Kansas Hope this ain't the Godfather's last kiss Is that Doc Moose that I hear Please tell me Red is now near It's time to end this paralysis Oh my! This place really is bizarre Nurse C! Enough with the C P R Dear Red its good to see you Tell me, what now shall we do Hey Moose, by chance did you bring your car This yellow path has no speed limit I'm sure we could go real fast on it Let us go search for the bus The one that Wiz hid from us Everyone pile in!

As we seek the Wiz by Villanelle we're off the coast of France Our search cut short by ocean's swell fear Neptune's great puissance Ship-wrecked fools A.W.O.L. fate rules by circumstance Washed ashore as we explore the beach's great expanse A bottle lies before one eye ( the other looks askance) As we seek the Wiz by Villanelle we're off the coast of France Curious I pop the cork and with much extravagance A Jinn appears with two cold beers and does the Hula dance Ship-wrecked fools A.W.O.L. fate rules by circumstance She says since I have set her free our search can now advance With wave of hand a sea-plane lands and out steps "Tuckett's" Nance As we seek the Wiz by Villanelle we're off the coast of France "The Silly-bus you'll not find here give Kansas one more glance" By plane then train (this is insane ) we'll have to re-finance Ship-wrecked fools A.W.O.L. fate rules by circumstance Another stop along the way by those who are entranced You can Ron but you can't hide from our vigilance As we seek the Wiz by Villanelle we're off the coast of France Ship-wrecked fools A.W.O.L. fate rules by circumstance |

The silly bus will be my focus as I nod my head to transport our squad. The silly bus to find will be a plus for all of us so here we go ready or not away we blow. Oh my stars where's Lady in Red, Andrew, and Nurse Crachet? (I hear a voice) Vegas Caesar's palace oh my, I did not mean for any malice. Shall we stay here in Kansas where the air is clear or should we search for where the other's may be? So sorry master for messing up must have lost my concentration part way through, sometimes I create such awful disaster. |

Just a blink makes one plan toast,hopes the others all are fine Red eye taken from east coast, now arriving right on time According to that last signpost ,points this way to the "Grand Design" The Silly-bus which matters most , with us does intertwine Yellow roads where road-kill roasts , that which stupefies the mind Just a blink makes one plan toast , hope the others all are fine Nothing here but other's ghosts , I'll take the Vegas line Odds foremost we'll find our host , so says this hunch of mine According to that last signpost , this way to the "Grand Design" Excess to the uttermost ,glitz and glamour strike some blind With our mission we're engrossed ,"Neuf Le Moose" Seven of Nine! Just a blink makes one plan toast , hopes the others all are fine Re-financed by a slick riposte , the Jinn and I shall dine On bouilliabaise from the sea-coast, with fine imported wine According to the last signpost , this way to the "Grand Design" Not to post what's innermost , if we were so inclined Would be negligence most gross , to be poetically unkind According to that last signpost , this way to the "Grand Design" Just a blink makes one plan toast , hopes the others all are fine [This message has been edited by Dr.Moose1 (edited 03-20-2000).] |

Oh my goodness, what have you done Andrew are you ok my hun ? Jeannie must be somewhat rusty At least a tiny bit dusty Crachet glad to see you here too Look a man with a ‘Stute tattoo ! Could that be our Doctor Moose Chumming up with that dumb blond goose Nah, dilusional I must be That’s not our Doc Moose, now I see Bets can be made with Crayons Red Only one, but also hundred Are you hungry my dear Andrew ? See they serve here a gooey stew Maybe a game you rather play Russian roulette is what you say ? Would you mind it awfully dear If I’d walk ‘round with Crachet here While you wait here at the bar If the others arrive by car Nurse Crachet we will walk around Until the others we have found No there’s no time for a glass of ale Oh my goodness, there are Chip & Dales !

Juliet for goodness sake what kind of observers could we even make if your looking out and only seeing chipmunks. These men you ponder over in that circus tent cast gifts of wonder and they're called Chippendale's. Do you care to glance while we're right here we'll blame it all on Jeannie's blinking circumstance. Look at that one's chest and look at him (wow)! He's hardly dressed how did these men get so blessed. Juliet this is to much for me never again a match to be for these men have more then I've seen before let's find the door. Let's get back to Andrew and check if he's found the rest of the crew or maybe he's still eating the stew. |

No-one can find us here We’re having a good time Drinking wine and cold beer They do nothing but steer Cross every country road No-one can find us here My silly-bus, my dear You’re safe here by my side Drinking wine and cold beer This is a new career Performing in Vegas No-one can find us here I am no rocketeer ! Playing my act on stage Drinking wine and a cold beer I wish for a cigar And Jeannie in a jar Drinking wine and a cold beer No-one can find us here !

Round and round Place your bet Time to answer the call I'm spellbound Drawn to it I love that silver ball Ten on Red Five on Black Twenty across the board Go ahead Bet the stack I've come to make a hoard See that ball Watch it fall I love double ought green Wager all for a haul I'll even bet Doc's spleen ----- Hmmmm.... How did I end up here is Vegas? I vaguely remember something about Kansas, holding my breath and being kissed by Lord Elton. But hey! I'm in Vegas! Where'd I get all these chips from? And this Spleen? Say... Wheel-boy... can you ask one of the pit bosses how much I can get for a spleen? Thanks. Now let us see... let's go heavy on Red... and Thirtysix... Twentyfour... Thirtyfour... Seem like winners to me... and always go to the green. Alright... rollem! |
