A Villanelle by Harry the Partridge


A multiverse isn’t somewhere to be

Stretch your mind ‘till it bends and you’ll see

A multiverse is manywhere to be


Walk forward or back

What you get’s what you see, or is it?

A multiverse isn’t somewhere to be


Walk straight or walk gay or walk fast

All at once perhaps you’ll all three

A multiverse is manywhere to be


In times of distress oh to jump

From one parallel to the next, any but this, but alas

A multiverse isn’t somewhere to be


Heartening hope harvested from a thriving tree

The knowledge of manythings different though unseen

A multiverse is manywhere to be


As long as I’m me there’s no hope I can see

Can I finally rest knowing I’m we?

A multiverse isn’t somewhere to be

A multiverse is manywhere to be
