I love acrostics but haven't written one in awhile. You did a good job with this one. Depression is a tough topic to tackle, and a hard thing to be saddled with. Good luck to you. Keep writing.
Yours,
Luna *smile*

Oh, how wonderful, those words. You describe depression to a "t". Excellent word choices and so true for this debilitating illness. Thoroughly enjoyed this write.
I also wrote an acrostic on depression here on FS, back in 2006, this is why yours daught my attention. Here is the link to mine:

OMG....just read yours! Oh yeah......we know what all that means! Love this line: Entry into a world of famous Black Rose Society - brilliant stroke of the pen there. Loved all of it!! Thanks so much for your review here. And glad you liked it! With regards, Sue

The artwork reminds me of brain neurons, and that's probably why you chose this particular piece. Depression is a terrible thing to go through, but you did a great write on the acrostic. I can't find anything to critique. Valerie

A well written acrostic poem that has a very good cadence which makes for an easy read. It has good imagery and descriptive scheme. Depression can kill the spirit and, if unchecked, the soul. Good luck in your contest.

Well done... not forced. Read a bit rough, adding to the sense of the depression. Good description.
I wish you well in the contest.
Thanks for sharing,

Comment from Curt Mongold
I like the abstract way this piece floats on the ocean of it's meaning, like flotsam on the ocean of life. It is a very nice acrostic, and I love the way you put this together in an almost chaotic, yet organized way, very similar to depression itself.
Kudos and good luck!
Sincerely,
Curt

Sixteezkid,
I like the the structure of this acrostic with its unusual rhyming scheme. My favorite line - Spilt guilt getting through.
Nicely done and good luck in the contest.

Depression is such a useless emotion. Unfortunatly, many people are afflicted by it. It is a spiderweb surrounding you. You can almost see the way out, but the sticky strands pull and tug on your emotions making it all the harder to escape.

I thought this poem captures a meaning of the picture. There seems to be a lot of chaos in the mind, just as the picture. It is reasonable that this is what cause depression, as well. This was a very enjoyable poem to read and think about. Thanks!
