A Villanellerator Poem: Bands Chrome Stands

here's the villanelle you requested ...

The hungry and the hunted explode into rocknroll bands
As he brushed the desert dust off that Mercedes chrome
On the finest of cottons and the hippest of brands

And evry stranger you meet in the street will make demands
So he grew his hair long and thew away his comb
The hungry and the hunted explode into rocknroll bands
 
Sittin' on the next stool, miss a little time on her hands
They surround the ship with shining curving motions and foam.
On the finest of cottons and the hippest of brands
 
attached to them as I do to men in my own lands,
Ooh, I get a feeling every night when you come home
The hungry and the hunted explode into rocknroll bands
 
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,
In twilight, in perdition’s lean and inauspicious loam).
On the finest of cottons and the hippest of brands
 
Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands,
outstretched just beyond your reach singing  ooh  baby  please
The hungry and the hunted explode into rocknroll bands
On the finest of cottons and the hippest of brands
