Acrostic

Truth escaped
(This was my entry for the eclipse contest a few weeks back; because I screenshot the poem from Word, the resulting jpg didn't count as individual words and sadly didn't count. Concrete poetry is difficult to replicate on this platform although I think Vocal is working on a solution. However, concrete poetry is very hard to replicate through AI, and so I thought the shape in addition to the acrostic element would stand out as different. AI has been infesting many writing platforms, school assignments, and social media that it alarms me that some might use AI to create original pieces.)

The Measure of a Man: Timeless Virtues for Enduring Success
If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs and blaming you for their turmoil, if you can maintain your trust in yourself when everyone else doubts you while also understanding and respecting their doubts, if you can wait patiently and not grow weary with the passage of time, if you can endure being lied about without resorting to lying yourself, if you can face hatred without succumbing to hate and yet avoid seeming too superior or too wise, then you possess a rare fortitude.

Be the love you so actively seek
The horizon awaits the embellishment of its blending hues, To be dazzled in its beauties, to be unafraid of the unknown mighty blue.
