The Acrostic Poetry Challenge
Created | Updated Feb 4, 2009
The Acrostic Poem has been a long-standing challenge, mainly between B'Elana and PedanticBarSteward. However, we've decided to open up the idea to anyone who would like to take part, as a regular poetry challenge.
The word chosen each time is the Telegram Game's current word, so if you join in or subscribe to the telegram game you'll know as soon as it's announced. When you've completed your poem, submit it by posting to a new thread below, and we'll put the best of them together in the next issue.
Have fun!

Hell on earth and hell in life,
Another day and just more strife,
Repentance just does not exist,
Days go by – why not get p!$$Ed?
B'Elana
Help me here, I'm stuck.
Acrostics aren't just luck.
Real poetry is so sublime
Doesn't always need a rhyme.

Happiness spreads
Around the world.
Reasonable people
Delighted and joyful.

Having tried my best to
Arrange these words that they might
Resemble some sort of order,
Definitions, I find, take flight!
