Love by Tony Whitaker
Lessee of thy devotion
Only death this worship part
Violated by betrothed
Evicted my emotion
02/04/2007 Author's Note: My first attempt at an acrostic. What say ye?
Thank you for the gift of feedback!

Posted by A. Paige White on 02/04/07 at 06:25 PM I really liked it. It lives up to its title and really represents how we seem to see love, temporarily. "violated by betrothed evicted my emotion" desecration of promise, legal expulsion of strong feeling... very good acrostic in a wounded sense. |
Posted by Genevieve Sturrock on 02/06/07 at 02:09 AM this was my first read of an acrostic...interesting and, frankly, so far beyond my ability with words and letters that i am in awe. |
Posted by Alisa Js on 02/21/07 at 12:23 AM Great first attempt here, Tony.. except that an acrostic... uses the letters in the title to begin each line... soooooooooooooo, does this mean you have the rest????.... just wondering... alisa..;-)
Love is what you have...
where is the part for... 'FOR RENT?'
