A villanelle

The world without end
Life without living
Death isn't the end

Who knows what to send
Receiving isn't giving
The world without end

Receiver indecent
Poem without writing
Death isn't the end

A life worth a cent
Rising costs of living
The world without end

Who is there to descent
Giving up living
Death isn't the end

Poet's way is to pretend
Dying is forgiving
The world without end
Death isn't the end.
