A grain of dust firms the grip
Glimmering moon, partly yawning
Is there much to dig?
They laugh out and trip,
Hands smouldering and swinging,
A grain of dust firms the grip.
Is there much to dig?
A forlorn ruins with parking,
Sinister diesel fuels the grin.
A grain of dust firms the grip,
Leave alone with shaky kindling,
Secrets shrivelled in the freight.
Horrified with motionless clips,
They run and gasp for busting,
Is there much to dig?
No clever twist as they skip,
Grey sky levels inner covering,
A grain of dust firms the grip,
Is there much to dig?

A villanelle (French verse) is a poem of nineteen lines, and which follows a strict form that consists of five tercets (three-line stanzas) followed by one quatrain (four-line stanza) with the first and third lines of the first stanza repeating alternately in the following stanzas. These two refrain lines form the final couplet in the quatrain. Villanelles use a specific rhyme scheme of ABA for their tercets, and ABAA for the quatrain.
