The History of Hubris
an acrostic poem
Stop! Hark, fool
I will show you the way
Look how tall the towers
Eradicate the rebels—traitors—quick!
No! The towers are fallen!
Ceasefire! Attack!
Endure... endure... endure...

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Kind of an intense, aggressive acrostic poem. I have been reading a lot of entries to learn about acrostic poetry. This is different!! Nicely Done!!
So much intensity in here, I love it!😊
