Villanelle: the Dilemma of the Non-Violent - Part Two

Villanelle : The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – Part Two Fail not to get your passports all in order Make sure the belt around your breast’s not too thick The security check’s stringent at Death’s door Do secret services stack agents au-delà Moss-Add in Sea Eye Ache Am I 5 or sick ? Fail not to get your passports all in order Putt-Inn Quai Bee Jees F(W)rench in the Works galore All zero-ing in from satellites swirling blick The security check’s stringent at Death’s door Diplomatic passports with laissez-passer Not quite sure if Death’ll fall for the bloody trick Fail not to get your passports all in order Heads of State bank presidents monarchs mullah Not quite sure if air-spaces’ reserved for their ilk The security check’s stringent at Death’s door Rely not on agents with chicks and coffer In the hope Death’ll try deadly earth chick lick Fail not to get your passports all in order The security check’s stringent at Death’s door © T.
