The Wolf Inside My Soul

The title and everything else about this poem are AWESOME. I hope that you entered the contest with this one. I love how you ended the poem with the title line, it is my favorite line. Hope to read more of your work again soon. Always, Cat

I think this Acrostic is awesome. Line 10 maybe omit "for" ? after fighting [Just a suggestion you may take it or leave it] _____________________________________________________ Income-tax forms should be more realistic by allowing the taxpayer to list "Uncle Sam" as a dependent Anonymous

I don't normally care much for acrostics, but this one came out well. There were several really powerful lines; namely: "Yielding unto nothingness my heart may simply rust" "Even in the darkest night his voice is haunting me" My only correction is: dimmit -> dammit (or damn it) and overture's -> overtures A belated welcome to the site. ~Jess K. ----------------------- "Sundown you better take care if I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs. Sometimes I think it's a sin when I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losing again" - Gordon Lightfoot

~candlewitch~ Thank you for your kind words. I am new to this site and this is my first Acrostic style poem. I did actually write it with the intent to enter it into the monthly contest just for kicks. However, I’m not quite sure if I entered it in correctly or not…hmmmm. Well I suppose we’ll see. Thanks again for stopping by. Be well, 2Quills

I'll make sure to keep my fingers crossed on that contest, I tried it so we'll see. And YES I am sure that I never did one before. Believe me i'd remember since this one was a tad tricky to write. I've never realy been one for following the rules lol. But WOW!!! Thank you for those amazing words, I'm actually kind of suprised that people have responded to it as well as they have. Stop on by anytime. Thanks again, Corey (2Quills)

The Wolf inside my soul

Corey Welcome to neopoet family I have not tried acrostic's yet they seem a bit scarry The spirit you speak of I know of so well this is so beautifully choreographed my friend I never plan to write anything but words tumble out of thin air i cannot help it - it just happens it must be Even in the dark of night his voice is haunting me singing to me in riddles oh he often does so many times there are so many colourful undertones running through this amazing poem Electric Blue so blue

Me two Blue... I mostly write “in the moment” as they say, with whatsoever emotion that I happen to trip across at that particular point in time. I think it took me longer to come up with a title for this piece than it actually did for me to write it. Do you know that I am grateful for your words here? If not, then you should. :)
