How about adding Terzanelle as a poem type.
It is a combonation of Villanelle and Terza Rima. It consists of five tercets and a quatrain like the villanelle. The middle line of the first stanza is duplicated as the last line of the next stanza and the first line of that very stanza rhymes with it, completing an interlocking form. The final stanza follows the same pattern as before, with the first line of the first stanza becoming the second line of the last stanza and the last line of the first stanza becoming the last line of the last stanza also, completing the link back to the first stanza.
As an alternative, Turco suggests making the repeat line be the second line still rhyming with the first forming one couplet and the interlocking lines from the first stanza making another couplet. Thus the two final schemes that make up the last stanza that could be either f. f. a. a., or f. a. f. a.
