Evolution (Acrostic)

by Mr. Darcy   Dec 13, 2015


Eons of subtle
Variations
Over a millennia create
Legs where fins
Used to be.
Try to conceive,
Irreversible changes to us...
Only now we are extinct by
Nuclear incompetency.

    Another brilliant acrostic from you, Michael. This form is underused in my opinion. It has a tendency to let the writer coast a bit and not put in the effort. But when done properly with care and attention, they can be wonderful.
    You have very clearly given this those two things - like you do all your work - and we are left with an intelligent, articulately written acrostic that makes you think....in this case, about what morons we are!

    All the very best and take care,
    Ben
