A Poem by Imperfection
"

Acrostic

"

 

Where have all the words disappeared?

Rummaging through my head, I manage to find

Innumerable alphabets scattered randomly, but

That blank feeling nevertheless looming large

Empty pages still stare back pitifully

Robbed of confidence, I decide to give up;

Suddenly a few alphabets align

 

 

Before I have a chance to read what they've formed, the
Letters exchange places swiftly, and

Oh my goodness, what do I see?

Clever letters –all of them, have
Knitted themselves to mock me.

Oh haven't we all been here! First stanza, fantastic! Few things in the second that I noticed:

Before I have a chance to read what they�ve formed, the
Letters exchange places swiftly

I think you could drop the "the" at the end of the first line. It isn't really needed meaning-wise and it helps the flow when it is gone.

Clever letters �all of them, have
Knitted themselves to mock at me.


The "at" isn't needed here either and, upon reading, flows nicer without it being there.

Nice job.
