Adeniji Toluwalope Gideon Poet Acrostic

Bamboozlement

Bamboozlement, a joy to thy heart
And thou gloat at their misfortunes
Maliciously misleading them with tricks
Bury this private property, a plea
Otherwise, you'll earn thy pay in full
One's joy comes from good wishes
Zap thy zest for schadenfreude
Let go of those wanton moral filths 
Embrace the joy from good wishes
Maintain my moral message and 
Enjoy big in a little planet
Never should thou forget
The day of thy sepulchre sleep
