Envy has begun its meal,
Consuming all we could consist of until its focus is
Liminal, set only in shades of green to cast us in ghastly
Irreverence—a bitter taste, so hateful.
Penance I pay for casting
Shadows on our potential, thoughts darkening until sin has
Eclipsed us all and devoured us whole.

i understand the meaning behind this so intrinsically it’s giving me chills. knocked it out of the park for real!!
Ooooh, I love the imagery and diction in this one!! A very unique entry into the challenge. That opening line: "Envy has begun its meal", drew me right in!
Great acrostic! Wonderfully written
