The Plagiaristic Singles
This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the Titles and Artists of 11 of my Vinyl Singles. The format is a doctored sonnet as a sonnet has 16 lines and DISTRACTION has only 11 letters so eleven lines, so two quatrains and a tercet.
The Prompt
Write an acrostic using the word DISTRACTION.

This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the Titles of and Artists of eleven of my Vinyl Singles.
You can see them all in the main photograph.
The format is a doctored sonnet as a sonnet has 16 lines and DISTRACTION has only 11 letters so eleven lines, so two quatrains and a tercet.
I will continue merging the "Dancing With Distraction" challenge with my "Plagiaristic Poetry" series until it closes. I know that makes me very lazy but it suits me while it is there and it is a challenge because the first letter of whatever I choose has to fit in with the challenge.
