This is a clear indictment against hunger. If you were to bless the coyote with a decent meal he would come up with a workable plan to catch that pesky road runner and have his behind for lunch.

Thanks, nomi.

Interesting acrostic of the rapscallion running at high speeds, unbelievably inept. He renders needlessly a starving coyote from having roadrunners roasted!

Thanks. Your review sounds familiar.

Fun acrostic poem that perfectly describes one of my favorite cartoons. I don't know why I even found it remotely funny now. I guess it was the wink-wink look at this poor coyote try to get the roadrunning shtick.

My favorite is when the coyote launched a dozen flying bombs at the beginning of the cartoon and one would fall in during each attempt to get the bird.
Comment from Gloria ....
Hey, I was hoping for another pranka, but a roadrunner roast is always good too. They still trying to figure out which way is North?
This is a most entertaining series, Bill
One typo in subtitle:
a (an) acrostic
Thanks for sharing. :)

Hello Bill, this is such a good Acrostic about the Roadrunner and his antics with the coyote. I never realized that Rapscallion was a real word, even though I use it when I'm talking to a little boy I know, lol. I also like the funny last line. Good image to end on.
Your publishing choices are excellent and make this an appealing work to review. I saw no errors and feel this is a strong five-star poem. Thanks for sharing it, Ana.

Oh, that last line is great--Render roadrunners into roasts. Great alliteration. I feel sorry for the poor roadrunners. They always have to be on the alert. Looks like they're managing to out-maneuver the starving coyote anyway. Excellent use of acrostic format. judi

Thi was a fun poem, Bill. I really like the use of the word rapscallion. You did a great job with the acrostic too--using a different color at the start of your lines is perfect. Your poem sums up that cartoon series well. Thanks for sharing. Jan

Comment from Debbie Pope
I smiled when I saw that Roadrunner was up next. How do you keep it up? Why do you keep it up? For my amusement I am sure. I particularly like your acrostic. And, of course, your last line. On an irrelevant note, my family was approached by coyotes once when we were horseback riding (there were no roadrunners to distract them). Our horses went berserk. We were at the back of of long line of riders in Yellowstone. Amazingly, we held on until the trail guide, who was in the front, managed to scare the coyotes away. I felt like . . . no, I was, riding for my life. Or at least the horse was. I was merely clinging. I think of those coyotes every time I read your roadrunner tales. But, you know, I would enjoy them anyway. They are simply amusing.
