weird...
the only problem is that you can only read it once. Then it's boring. But the first time it's good. It's creative and funny. I like it.

This is a list of words which happens to form an acrostic of the alphabet and it makes very little sense when read. Although it is unique and creatiive, it's not a poem, its just a list. Not much else to say really.

Have you had problems insulting yourself before? Really, there it no need.

The idea of using the alphabet to structure a poem is intriguing, I'm not sure I've seen it before? But incredibly difficult because it looses all sense in the process. I haven't an idea of what you speak of, animals maybe? I think Ofour hit it on the head, calling it a list.

If you could actually turn this into something that made sense, using the alphabet, I'd be amazed. It's too hard.

Are u teaching some one A for apple and B for ball,in a different way?

This was definately something weird a nd funny.

Anyway try turning this into something else,that may work out well.

I think it's delightful.

I liked it! At first, I didn't see that there were sentences within it; this could be fixed by paragraph spacing, if you'd like. Maybe see if you can connect the ideas more?

i like it. it's very interesting and i'm pretty sure i haven't seen it before. It's very creative, good job:)

I don't know what your intention was, but sadly anyone can stick arbitrary words into a list form. This is, to my mind, not poetry, because it lacks any of the technical aspects that present poetry effectively to the human mind.

My only suggestion is that you read some published poetry to try and get a sense for how things are done. Once you have some grasp of the basics you can try again.

No no, she's done it before.

this is no poem it is simply a list of words in althebetical order plz write something a lot more serious!!

interestingly different. unique but short lived.

That was a good approach, but you need to be serious. Stop posting junk!

Aw i've seen one of these before I had to memorise one for drama. I think i could maybe still recite it

I'd love to try one of these.

Great job, i love your mostly clear story
