It would be such a struggle I would have to take a nap afterwards.

Maybe you could write another villanelle? Now I have to go look up what that is, exactly.

I seem to remember a villanelle on this very blog a week or three ago,

although I may be remembering under a misapprehension, my swiss cheese brain being what it is - or it may have been very much like a villanelle as I dimly remember it from poetry classes of 35 years ago. Leaving now to look up pettifog, which word I've heard 'forever' but never bothered to look it up.

I should very much like to have seen your villanelle. Ribcage enjoys a pettifog apparently, but you, obviously, not so much. And ain't it fun to be right?
