Yes, that man is emotional apart from some other vices associated with masculinity. You have chosen them well. May be his emotion saved him from being greedy.

    Thank you for your reveiw. Yes, this is the situation where the man's heart sticks his foot out and trips up the masculinity.

I love it. Your last line is an Ogden Nashian spit in the eye of acrostic fans. Wish I'd thought of it. Are they nashing their teeth? slainte, rhymer1

Hello Mike K,

Great choice of words "Love sick"...which every word gives the meaning to love sick. Good job!
I enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing,
Susan

Hi, MikeK,

I liked what you tried to do with this piece. Some suggestions: remove the brackets from around "Is" in the title. It stands alone fine the way it is. The "K" part of your acrostic could be better; I'd use a "real" "K" word.

Good luck on your writing endeavors.

    Thank you for your reveiw. I did look through the "K" words, but felt it best to keep the spirit. Another reveiwer accused me of short cutting, but I stated my arguement for the use of that word.

A well written acrostic, with good imagery and a bit of humour. Your description is very accurate. Lovesickness can cause one to be all these things and more. Good write. Verna

well, someone like that would just piss me off. he sounds like he marches to the beat of his own drummer. i guess to each their own. i liked the poem and the play with the word in the end. nice job.

love sick sometimes can be just how you say and present it here, nice acrostic, reads smooth and makes its point clearly.

This is a fantstic acrostic. I think you hit the nail on the head. Absolutely nothing to dislike Bravo.

The ability to find humor in our "oblivious" and "vigorous"
flirtatious behavior is always entertaining fodder.
Thank you for sharing this one.
A fun one to review.

    I thank you very much for you reveiw. Sometimes we become wrapped to tight, and I like dynamiting log jams. I will occasionally put out a little poetic humor.
