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!

Crucify him, Pilate said
Herod would rejoice
Rome should be OK with that,
It's the wisest choice.
Saviour, now hear my voice:
Thorns shall crown your head.

Carry him gently in your arms.
Hordes try to follow. Keep calm.
Roll the stone to keep him safe;
Is he the Son of God?
Saviour? Messiah?
The Lord Jesus is somewhere higher.
