I've depicted all the undesired bends. Heightened indefinitely. Assaulted my mind and emotions. Traumatized my cosmic psyche. Evaded environmental factors. My closest companion was famine. Yearn for lawlessness. Backside of a fantabulous shape. Outrage took hold of my dreams. Destroying my brawn. Yapping waves at the scale. I withstood self-upheaval disgust. Literally, I endure more than a close body. Overwhelming food scarcity. Vindicate my own sense of worth. Early sarcophagus and eloped. Muddled through to figure it out. Yauping in despair is unattractive. Believing I'm alluring as a person. Overindulging my true spirit. Distorted me into a person. Yesterday, I wasn't able to eat.

A highly introspective write.... ! Contradictory sentiments rule our heart when we think of our body. Incongruity rules our very life. A meaningful and highly ingenious acrostic poem . Wish you the very best in the contest, dear Lasaad

Very thoughtful introspection, Lassad. Another long poem--depicting life's travails. Best to you.

I suppose we all have that love hate relationship with our bodies, a well written acrostic Lasaad. Good luck in the contest. Tom

I have never written an acrostic. You did a great job. I suppose suffering is necessary. Best for a win.
