Replying to a comment on:

How Well I See (Villanelle) by Blue Magpie

If right, means only what is right for me, however frightful such a theory seems, so much depends on just how well I see and understand the true reality, so little on the cleverness of schemes. If right, means only what is right for me, am I, within my mind, at last set free to be as truly selfish as my genes? So much depends on just how well I see the linkages that span eternity, short-sightedness I’m sure only demeans. If right, means only what is right for me self knowledge is my first priority all else is someone else’s dreams. So much depends on just how well I see my place within the greater unity, a team within a universe of teams. If right, means only what is right for me, so much depends on just how well I see

For some reason, the Villanelle form scares the daylights out of me to attempt, but your poem flowed well and the repetition formed a circle around the meaning. Enjoyed and might inspire me to give the form a try!
