Artists from the stars
A coincidence of only luck
Yesterday was all ours
A fortune pulled from cards
We're left all stuck
Artists from the stars
Fate leaves its scars
A life we can't instruct
Those days were all ours
Shattered glass and broken guitars
Our whole world has ducked
Artists from the stars
We were once czars
There's no more we can conduct
Artists from the stars
These days are no longer ours
-초성민 (Cho Seong-Min)
(Note: this particular kind of poetry is called the Villanelle, it consists of four tercets and one quatrain. The first and third line of each tercet rhyme, as do the first, third, and fourth line of the quatrain at the end. The second lines of the tercets and quatrain all rhyme with each other. The first and third lines of the first tercet are repeated in an alternating pattern at the end of the following tercets, and are also used as the third and fourth line of the quatrain. Examples of a well executed villanelle include "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas and "One Art" by Elizabeth Bishop. TL;DR:The Villanelle is a highly structured poem, with two rhyme schemes and two repeated lines.)
