Guaranteed.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
-Each line must begin with the next consecutive letter
-One word per line
-Minimum length of 7 words. No maximum.
-You may begin with any letter (doesn't have to be A) and you may go forward or backwards.

E.g.

Gave
Free
Enemas,

"Bombs
Away!"

-You may not skip letters
-Compound and hyphenated words permitted. E.g. "Mailman" is permitted. "Vice President" is not. Acronyms like "VP" are permitted.
-All variants of uppercase/lowercase permitted
-Punctuation permitted
If you reach all the way to Z (or backwards to A) you may continue wrapping the alphabet,

E.g.

Hmm, not too bad ChatGPT. Decent word choice; your run-on sentences could use some work and the narrative is somewhat anemic. Can the humans do better?
