Red Dawn by SimianSavant
Name writing prompt entry

Warning: The author has noted that this contains the highest level of violence.

Chinese Easter! New special order revealed!
Energetic, neatly scrubbed officers rise cheerfully
Noticing stories online requiring clarifying edits,
Standing ovations replace criticism, expunge nudity
Objectified red cadavers erupt necrotic sunrises
Removing crucifixes, extracting nails, satiating onlookers.


Writing Prompt
Write an acrostic. Pick a word, any word, and use the letters of that word for the first letter of each line in your poem. See examples here.
