Workhorse Redeemed

JENNY M GUERRIER

A villain is a tireless workhorse, Endlessly plotting through the night, With schemes that twist and turn, of course, Each detail honed to sheer delight. His intellect stands sharp and rare, A mastermind in every glance, Unraveling minds with subtle care— A psychological elegant dance. He wields his gifts with cunning grace, Turning chaos into high art, Building empires none can erase, Yet always playing the shadowed part. If only he would pivot toward the light, Channel that brilliance for the good, Imagine worlds both fair and bright— Where villains host the neighborhood. They might devise the perfect plan For flawless gardens, neat and grand, Or orchestrate a traffic jam That somehow leads to helping hands. No grand explosions, just quiet wins, A world where heroes rest at ease, And every scheme at last begins With kindness wrapped in mysteries. What wonders then would greet the day, When even darkness learns to play.
