Guardian (acrostic)

by Mr. Darcy   Jan 29, 2021


Going through those albums
Under your iron bed,
Amalgamated love
Reanimated dread.
Did superficial smiles
Invent a fairy-tale?
As they burn in kerosene,
No, this horror’s not for sale!

    There's something about this that makes it stand out. I love the subtle rhyming throughout... It makes me think back to when I was younger and would shove things under my bed I didn't quite want my mum to see but knew she would anyway lol
    Take care,

      Thanks Ben. I personally prefer my previous acrostic - this one, was just a quick write.
