What is distraction?
Mental health at risk. An acrostic poem

Development detriment, determination deep detraction
Irresponsible irritation, irksome immutable image innuendo, invariable inclination
Stepping slowly, shrewd souls’ stripper
Thoughts trapped; tangible tow transposed
Real response realised, reversed, reintroduced
Acoustic abomination, attentive aggravation
Climax cleared, chewed, choked, constantly casting corroded chain
Taste twisted, transgressed, torn to tatters
Identified, incapable, intentional indignation ill-tempered
Oratory omen, olfactory occurrence
Nil nourishment, nonsensical numbness
