haha! it's me to start the ball rolling! let's start with my very first villanelle!

Fish Mongering

The silver multitudes and their glassy stare
Fiddle dee diddle tap dancing crabs twined
Death lurks everywhere

Death presents herself with a flick of the hair
The flick, flick, flick choosing of the more refined
And still the silver multitudes glassily stare

And no on knows that death lives there
In the gashed handle of that bloodthirsty swine
Death lurks everywhere

The wealth of talk masks the strident blare
Of dead next to dead, talking in time
And in the silver of the glassy eyed stare

All are naked in the phrase of death, where
A flash of colour merely defines
Death lurks everywhere

*****one more line..help!!*****
Throw so much casualty in the face of life
These silver multitudes merely stare
Forboding. Death lurks everywhere.
