Ciao !
This is a very creative and original nonet.
Love how you formed the numbers linking even two separate words
and how you expressed DEPRESSION.
You make it look easy to create but it isn't.

Thanks so very much Tempeste. Perhaps homophones come a little easier to me from speaking just one language, though there is still a lot of trial and error really dialing in the detail on these things. The AI image provided some great inspiration. But I've spent many hours on the acrostics contest coming up and still don't have it finished!

Your 2D acrostics are very sophisticated.
I noticed that most who have entered your contest have improved though.
As you know, I wrote a 5 word one but I won't be posting it in the competition.
My is cute but nowhere near their level.
I'll just post it out of the competition to avoid comparison...and laughs.

There is already one very advanced, smoothly constructed 2D acrostic entered in the contest that's nine letters long, tied with my previous longest. AND it's that contestant's first try at it too. There are two other very advanced writers on the site who have spots reserved, and I have high hopes for what they might enter. Mine will likely be the most ambitious but it's rare that the most impressive ones win, and I'll continue to post them all in future contests like I did in this one so that the best work receives proper recognition.
You can always enter your 5x in a normal acrostic contest if you want. I did that with a couple of mine before I started hosting these contests. 🦍

I do enjoy reading these much-improved 2D acrostics. I love the format you created.
Thanks for the suggestion, I will enter my five-letter poem in a normal acrostic.
Seeing only the first word of each line has to mirror the word chosen, I might alter some words to make the reading smoother.
I can always post in the note section the original 2D version.
Shouldn't you be sleeping?
-
Yeah it's super late here. I've been up late editing a friend's book, and now I am trying to finish a stupid piece to enter in a contest that closes in four hours. Almost done...
-
Okay, I will leave you in peace so you can finish
Keep safe Harambe!

Very clever, the way you have counted down the lines and continued to keep the story/message on track, along with the character so he eats up some syllables, very well written, best wishes for your contest****kahpot

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us, but I had to copy and paste it so I could read it. The words in white letters ran together and I couldn't make out the words. You might want to consider that before the contest ends and goes to the judges. Just a thought.

This is what it looks like on my screen. Does it look that way on yours?
-
No, it didn't look like that. The letters were all scrunched up together and the white ones where hard to read.
-
Can you check and see if it still looks like that?
-
I did and now I can read it. In a few places the words next to the white letters have a white letter too. Might want to check those out.
-
That is deliberate, as the letters in white phoneticize each of the descending numbers.
-
Thank you for explaining. I misunderstood. I need to go back and read, which I will do.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I don't think many can make this emotion sound fun but you just clinched it, Simian, with this depressed, despairing Dracula. Your nonet is excellently crafted into shape and presentation and made your own with humour! But do start with 'nein' please and not 'nien.' Your 'Count' should know better:)) Good luck! Debbie

This is a very clever nonet, I love the construction, the sentiment and the well worded lines to include the subtle numbers of each line within. This would be worthy winner for the contest. A joy to read and I wish I had a six left, this is a magical post, very skilfully written and amusing too, love Dolly x x x
