  • In this poem I think it the enjambment makes it flow smoother, and have some anticipation of what the next line will bring. This poem does pull you in and make you feel as though you are there. Melody

    I have to agree with MasochistBunny this is not true to the Villanelle. To the untrained eye it may appear to be because it is close. Also on line 18 is not proper nor is it fitting with the pentameter. It has 11 syllables instead of 10 unless I am not reading it correct. I'll have to go back to the board on punctuation to see if I am correct. But I think mystery has 3 syllables in it. mys-te-ry???? Also line 1 & 3 are suppose to repeat altenating in the 3rd line of each stanza and that does not happen.
