H.A.T.E.

H eart clouded and grim entwined with a mind clothe in darkness A ffirming true evil conceived deep within its chambers T winning with ego, it spreads, devouring like a wild fire E very good thought, and like cancer, then turns on its host ~ Entry for Paula Swanson's "A Single Word" Contest

This is awesome how you could explain a word in such a imaginative way through an acrostic.

Smile, "Sweet!" ~ "You Are Good Dear Audrey!" It sounded like psychosis!? Smile, you know, when I viewed it the second time I, could almost feel a tinge of your soul amid its words ~ it was a very wonderful feeling! That's what all poets or poetess' should aspire unto; reaching deep within to exude such as their own spirit into, their readers, souls...."Beautiful"...."My Love & Warmth To You & Your Loves, Always," John! ~ Smile, "Bye Dear!":)
