Free verse a la villanelle

Free verse you say?  Yes that I can do.
But what should it be about?
There's the rub.  (I didn't make that up).
I'll poke around in the poetry bin
And find some scraps.
The word that comes is "vilanelle"
Maybe just the first three lines?

What words rhyme with vilanelle?
Vilanelle.  Villanelle.  It seems I can no longer spell.
And this whole pome is shot to hell.

That could be a villanelle. 
The beginnings of a villanelle.
But this here poem is shot to hell.

Author notes

Well, it's playful, I'll say that for it. Or not.
