The Plagiaristic Title Tracks (Don't Look Back)

Another Plagiaristic Poem Utilising The Title Tracks Of Albums In My Collection And A Take On The Vocal "Dancing with Distraction" Acrostic Challenge Featuring More Stolen Words

Don't Look Back Album Cover By Boston

The Prompt

Write an acrostic using the word distraction.

Read all about it here

This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the Title Tracks of albums in my collection. 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.

  • Sandra Tena3 years ago

    Great experiment, it works phenomenally! x

  • More fun. Just a couple of things: First line: "Your Future Is Bight"? Bight? Second, "distraction" has only eleven letters, just as two quatrains & a tercet have eleven letter.

  • Well done!
