John Hamilton Poet Acrostic

Fear of Terrorism

Fear of Terrorism

T raumatized tortured tumultuous feelings of trepidation
E ncapsulating effervescing emotions everywhere eventually
R esponding rapidly to ruthless and relentless repetition of
R evelations of  revolutionaries remorseless rapaciousness
O bstreperously obliterating outrageously the innocent
R etributions replicate as ramifications remonstrate
I nsurrection insidiously intensifies as ideologies immortalize
S trategically surreptitiously suffocating silently sons sanity
M ankind muses meticulously as methodologies morph into misery

Agnes Krampe February 22, 2017 at 6:39 PM Wow - I like what you did with the alliterations. Congrats on your placement, John. John Hamilton February 22, 2017 at 8:10 PM Thanks Agnes, was an interesting write!

Doug Vinson February 22, 2017 at 4:01 PM Truly well-done, John. : ) Great use of words with a large average size. To language! John Hamilton February 22, 2017 at 5:33 PM Thanks Doug, generally I prefer simple words with deep feeling, but sometimes a deeply cerebral write is satisfying. This is one of the few examples of my large word poems, but it just felt write. Thanks for the visit and thumbs up!
