For a Poetry Duel with Faeren's Poems ( I won 17/7)
Write a villanelle on the prompt of rebelling, defiance, or refusal
A fracture in the asphalt's base, Where giant buildings' shadows fall, A single seed reclaims its place. Blind footsteps race. It hears the buried earth's forgotten call, A fracture in the asphalt's base. A stubborn grace, It will not bow, refusing now to crawl; A single seed reclaims its place. A cracking space, A flash of green where nothing grew at all. A fracture in the asphalt's base. Unfolding embrace, It tears apart the suffocating wall. A single seed reclaims its place. The shattered case, The wild returns to break the city's sprawl. A fracture in the asphalt's base. A single seed reclaims its place.
