Comments : Pride at work (acrostic/ mirrored reverse nonet)

    Ah, nonets. I think if I remember correctly, this were one of the first forms I encountered in this site. It was either, this or the etheree, but that’s how I learnt to count syllables. Good memories.

    Thanks for the reminder. I like what you did with the acrostic. If I understood, this is all about Ed the worm?

      I too cut my teeth on these forms. With it being Pride month I thought, why not write about a male earthworm who discovers wearing headlamps enables him to express his sexuality at work.
      Thanks for the comment.

    A perfect poem for the pride month, Michael. Glad to see this very clever work nominated.
