Villanelle: Brand Not a Nation As Satan's Igloo

Villanelle: Brand not a nation as Satan’s igloo Brand not a nation as Satan’s igloo All nations on their own play Satan’s role If S/He created you, then Satan too It’s the Satan in you brands other too For the Satan in the other’s calls roll Brand not a nation as Satan’s igloo If Satan you think freezes in igloo Tell me who made the Satan His equal If S/He created you, then Satan too Those who make nations also make igloo For sure as Hell, nations will melt in thrall Brand not a nation as Satan’s igloo Nations are fine for boosting their ego At World Cup trials where balls get to roll If S/He created you, then Satan too Sink oceans, level mountains, customs too And the Satans will be caught shivering all Brand not a nation as Satan’s igloo If S/He created you, then the Satan too. © T.
