Villanelle: A 19-line poem of fixed form consisting of five tercets and a final quatrain on two rhymes, with the first and third lines of the first tercet repeated alternately as a refrain closing the succeeding stanzas and joined as the final couplet of the quatrain.

I have to try to write one of these.

Speaking of words, has anyone read The Plot: The Secret Story of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion by Will Eisner? It's a very cool graphic novel on one of the most infamous tracts of anti-semtisim, The Protocals of the Elders of Zion - which refuses to die, even though it's been known to be a forgery since 1921 and people use it all the time to prove the idea of that the Jews are trying to take over the world.

Uhm, if the Jews were actually trying to take over the world for the last few thousand years, I think they would have done so by now. 'Cause, really, if they've been plotting for thier entire existance I'm sure they would have found a workable plan by now, or at least have found a plan so that they wouldn't have to have gone through the whole "kick the Jew" thing.

Oh, but now I actually have to read the The Protocols of the Elders of Zion now, since I'm trying to read Mien Kampf without actually reading Mien Kampf. And since Hitler quoted from the tract...
