Villanelle: Don'T Some Live Life the Way He Or She Wants It

Villanelle : Don't some live Life the way he or she wants it Don't some live Life the way he or she wants it Look around and see who lives resounding lives If I were Life's Playwright won't I so fix it Make both Yang and Yin agree to make things fit Into the entire Scheme of Things which us drives Won't some live Life the way he or she wants it No playwright can banish conflict from his Script He'd play to empty seats actors who mime lives If I were Life's Playwright won't I so fix it So Evil-Doers reign supreme to make it The way the Play devolves on stage each scene contrives Won't some live Life the way he or she wants it Not to shift blame on either won't I judge it Best to make Authorities live double lives If I were Life's Playwright won't I so fix it Doubt not why Evil-Doers always make it Protected pardoned cherished Queen Bees in hives Don't some live Life the way he or she wants it If I were Life's Playwright won't I so fix it © T.
