Blue (Acrostic Tongue Twister)

by Meme   Aug 27, 2012


Burdened; this body buries a
lost life, left lingering in loud
ululations, until the unknown
entraps it in inky Blue echoes.

**For a club contest**

    This is great, It is definately a tongue twister,

    Ululations hey?

    I had to look it up, howling!!!!

    I love it when somebody uses a word that a smart arse like myself doesn't know.

    I love the last line the best, inky blue echoes is great.

    I hope you win the contest.

    I love reading tongue twisters!!! You used the perfect words to twist just enough... not too confusing and not too hard. I love it... and I agree with Luce, I'd rather this had a blue background! It does have a sad tone.

    inky Blue echoes! <3<3<3

    Ah, I would have love to see a blue background for this piece, specially since it gives me a sad tone. It might have been the starting part "Burdened" and also that someone carries the grief of carrying a lost life... Sounds like someone took the life of someone else.. And the word ululations are like howls, right? I mean screams.. I so like how you used it on this piece. Overall, I it did twist my tongue specially when I got to the word ululations, it's well written and the inky blue echoes... I like how that sounds thought it made me think of depression.

    Meme, My tongue is officially in knots.

    I think the sky is an image, that you associate with life and death, and I love the blue sky, it makes me feel so warm and alive.

    You captured this so well, and I love how simple it is, but how mind boggling it is to say out loud. :)
