Villanelle: Whosoever's Inveigled By the General Theory of Good In Evil

Villanelle : Whosoever’s inveigled by the general theory of Good in Evil

Whosoever’s inveigled by the general theory of Good in Evil
Knows not Yang in Yin’s tai chi arms gets kicked out of bed
The fight’s then over better still forfeit all moral wherewithal

The Good by nature will not stir to quell the scheming Devil
Post-coitus female praying mantis munches the male’s head
Whosoever’s inveigled by the general theory of Good in Evil

If you do nothing at all everything will turn to rot or swill
The sink will reek with stink and leeching bed-bugs are bred
The fight’s then over better still forfeit all moral wherewithal

Then even the police and security forces will outright kill
Seize by force the rightful hard-earned virtue of the Good
Whosoever’s inveigled by the general theory of Good in Evil

The relativity principle wants that both abide in goodwill
Be that so who lets the Evil get the upper-hand and go ahead
The fight’s then over better still forfeit all moral wherewithal

Hound rape denounce torture deprive confound steal kill
All thoughtless actions which in the heartless are self-bred
Whosoever’s inveigled by the general theory of Good in Evil
The fight’s then over better still forfeit all moral wherewithal
