Well done. I know nothing about this form, but am certain you are probably on form. Such a good decision to not accompany with any art-work, given the subject. The start white on black seems perfect.

Nothing more comes to mine for me to tell
After all, I'm reading a vacant villanelle

You did a great job with a complex style, Mystery Author. Your color scheme and lack of image work well. Your rhymes are great and there's good flow. Your message is clear--yes there are times when nothing comes to mind to write and share. Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

How very true this can be when we seem to draw a blank. But you have not, as this clever poem describes what you are not lacking, creativity! Excellent work!

-A well written "vacant villanelle."
-Effective meter, imagery, and rhyme.
-A clever topic and good repeating lines.
-My favorite images are
"liquid thoughts refuse to gel"
and "no fragrant flowers in the dell."
-A very good entry; good luck.

I liked your poem for no reason that I can tell. It is simply...appealing. Thank you for sharing. Nice to have no picture, too. Will watch for your work in the future. Stay active and safe.
