Hi playin',

An interesting free verse acrostic. You've nailed the feelings down to a T .... until the demise of dignity!

Best wishes for the contest.

This fits the Acrostic pattern AWKWARD but I 'm not sure how abetting is used in this meaning in the sentence; it usually means assisting an illegal action or an immoral action.

I don't see where dignity is either one of those unless you are implying a feigned dignity which could be exciting to the perpetrator because it would be the vice of pride.

I didn't see any spelling or grammatical errors.

You created a very good acrostic. A clumsy encounter, where words fail, was a nice way to start it! Good luck with this contest!

Excellent artwork to complement your Acrostic, that is faultless and original. Does not sound like a nice encounter. Best wishes for the contest.

This poem, almost makes the reader want
to feel good about being or making a
clumsy move. Your poetic alliteration
was good. And you said a thousand word,
put into a nutshell. Nice job. Keep writing.

yes awkward - a tricky concept to quantify sometimes but here it has been evoked in appropriate terms with a suitable picture to accompany

Hi,

This is so spot on! Great Acrostic describing 'Awkward.' You can't go wrong with Bertodi artwork to compliment.

Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.

It is very hard on that person as they are considered oafish,
ungraceful or even inept of doing even the simplest job.
Creating low self-esteem and confidence.

A nicely constructed piece in the tight framework of the chore offered. I especially like the final line, a demise of dignity.

It says a lot...

Thank you for the posting.
