FFF 9: villanelle challenge

before we get to the tutorial and time limits for the next challenge i wanted to feature the writers that participated in the pantoum challenge:

:thumb311909134: TransparencyIf I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this:
I've sought too hard to fully understand
Your mind without a tender kiss.
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this:
The selfish mind, not loving unity.
Your mind without a tender kiss
Is passion without purity.
The selfish mind, not loving unity,
I've sought too hard to fully understand.
Is passion without purity
If I profane with my unworthiest hand? CompathyI've been told it's irrelevant;
An acquaintance is a friendly face
Whether I reckon I hold them
As confidant or coincidence.
An acquaintance is a friendly face;
I hail friends from crosswalks
As if a confidant or coincidence,
In reference or in reverence.
I hail friends from crosswalks
Whether I reckon I hold them

thank you all!

now...since i turned 40 this week i thought i would get all serious about this particular challenge and confront everyone with what i consider a very challenging form: the villianelle.

villanelle tutorialthe villanelle is a challenging form based on french concepts. it is highly repetitive, using 2 lines as refrains throughout the form, making it hard to progress concepts, let alone a narrative. it is composed of 5 terzains (3 line stanzas) and a concluding quatrain. on the flip side, there are only 2 sets of rhyming words and no real mandatory meter or syllable count, though most modern villanelles use pentameter.
in the following template the first refrain (that is an entire line repeated not just a word or rhyme) is denoted by CAPs (A), the second refrain by BOLD (A) and the general rhyme schemes denoted in lower case ( 'a' for the lines that rhyme with the refrains and 'b' for the secondary scheme).
