Here We Lie (Double Acrostic)

by Italian Stallion   May 11, 2006


Here we lie until death
Entangled mess, this is no joke
Running from the undertaker
Eager to produce

What is below
Easy to Obverse

Love is not the answer it is delusional
In this mess I
Eliminate the possibilities and exhale

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Acrostic Poetry is where the first and last letter of each line spells a word, usually using the same words as in the title. Pretty straight forward, no rhyme scheme or syllable count.

    Haha, wow. I've never seen a DOUBLE acrostic poem. I would never be able to do this. I'm not even good at regular acrostic poetry, so great job for even actually being able to do this. Your word choice is really pretty amazing, because you have a lot of restrictions about what letter they can start/end with. I actually think I like the poem, because it doesn't rhyme or flow in a certain way.

    Wow, I've never seen somthing like this where he acrostic went down both sides of the poem! Thats really cool, and I liked the words you inserted for each letter, in a few places it was obviously forced but I think any poem with the acrostic going down both sides would turn out that way! 5/5 for this uniquly beautiful write!
