C'est magnifique, M. Cantor.

Trademark, not Hallmark.

Good for you, Michael. It's good to have another soldier in the fight against villanelle vilification. It's a fun poem.

[Michael Cantor]

Thanks, all, for the encouragement. It takes a village to write a villanelle.

[Paul Lake]

Congrats, Michael, on your villanelle's publication in Dark Horse.

[David Rosenthal]

Coolness.

David R.

[Catherine Chandler]

One of my favorite villanelles. Congratulations, Michael!

[Tim Murphy]

Alan Sullivan wrote an apologia to me near the end of life, the killer line of which was:

I am the villain in our villanelle.

[Ned Balbo]

I thought I detected a hint of darkness when we spoke at West Chester this year, Michael....Now I see I should've just looked down at your sneakers!

Belated congratulations (I'm late to the thread, as usual...)

[Janice D. Soderling]

Thanks to who ever bumped this up. I am even later than Ned. I have the poem in hard copy (being a subscriber), but congrats to you Michael for having it highlighted.
