Vincent Seeger: Sestina for Codependent Cartoon Super-villains Aka The Homoerotic Misadventures of Shredder and Krang

We prove that evil can stand together,

even in the face of our ninja foes.

We will have our world domination

as one, we will destroy these…turtles.

Convoluted plans always bring defeat

from you blame is almost all that I hear,

that and their blasted, wretched theme music.

Cowabunga they shout all together!

Oh, how I desire to bring them defeat,

yet with friends like you who has time for foes?

I would end you if not for the turtles

loathing must submit to domination

Saki, I will have world domination

Despite your stupid bumbling, you hear?

I don’t want excuses about turtles!

If we are going to work together,

you must show me that you can beat these foes.

With a body I could teach them defeat,

the way they have always taught you defeat.

It is good they don’t want world domination.

All of your schemes fail against noble foes.

Whining, and grousing are all that I hear.

Mousers, mutants, and ninjas together

lie in broken heaps before the turtles.

Krang!  You must aid me against the turtles.

I grow so weary of feeling defeat.

Perhaps if they did not fight together,

perhaps some form of mental domination.

Through channel six send waves that they can hear.

Do it or you will become my new foe.

Saki, I would be safer as your foe. 

Maybe I will help the ninja turtles,

maybe, that is what you wanted to hear.

From the start, we have been self-defeating.

We must always vie for domination,

can we ever truly be together?

Are we just foes, living in defeat?

Stress over turtles. Who is dominant?

When I speak can you hear? Us, together?
