The Ode that never was (Villanelle) by Shardik

"Why are these street signs in Morse code?" (I was on my way to pay the tax man when) I made a right turn, down the wrong road. Like my state of mind needs this added load? "Excuse me Maam, may I ask you a question?" "Why are these street signs in Morse code?" The woman seemed distant, in a strange mode. Mumbling something about letting them syphon. I made a right turn, down the wrong road. I tried to remember if I had licked a toad? When up rolled a mad four wheeled orphan. "Why are these street signs in Morse code?" All he said was, "Screw pirgayte LeChoadke!" Then he went into a pub dubbed the "Lions Den" I made a right turn, but down the wrong road. If I was a poet I would've made this an ode. (But 'twould be ignored, and not get a ten) "Why are these street signs in Morse code?" I made a right turn, down the wrong road.

Oh...I really wanted to be sarcatic and rename it the Ode that never should have been...but it's actually quite funny.
Maybe next time. I'll go and read Blade's work to see real crap. Or not.
