Reading between the lines

Professor Venomous & Boxman fan-poetry for the Acrostic challenge

By Melissa IngoldsbyPublished 3 years ago 1 min read
PV & Boxman together (not my art)

Do you feel our fluid, aching

Incessant warmth, poured like

Syrup over

Toppled hot cakes?

Reading between the lines

Across the pages of our baffling, villainous story,

Cutting gorgeous glances

That seep into my soul

I know somewhere in time I was once a hero,

Only right now in this moment you can save me...

Nocturnal worries without fear as we slip into the new tomorrow hand in hand.
