Hi, letting you know that this does not meet the format requirements for the contest. This is not a standard acrostic contest, and the letter that begins every word here is fixed.
For example, one could do a double acrostic on AUNT as follows:
An unusually nubile terrorist
untied Nancy's tricycle. Animals
nearby taught at university,
to anyone usually naked.
Of course this makes absolutely no sense, but it shows how the letter of each word must begin. Please have a look at the examples in the contest description, and let me know if you re-work this so I can re-review.
Thanks,
🦍

Thanks for feedback, shall amend. Cheers.

In case no one's mentioned it yet, in a 2-D acrostic, you have to spell the word not just down, but across in each line. If you look at the samples you can see it:
C....A....T
A....T....C
T.....C....A
You have plenty of time to revise!

Hi. You have an "Aunt" poem here with abab rhyming.
On the last line "tempting joyboys, witch enticing." Dont you mean toy boys? I wish boys didnt do this in real life, but they do !
