I love this. Very well written. Yes we must move on, I pray everyday. We are so much better than what happened to our country. We are United and not divided.
I pray the world will see we are Forever United, in spite of metastasis lies!
Write on. This took courage to share! Proud of you!

Yes, there has been a lot of strife in the past several years. Ex president Donald Trump has caused a lot of it. He seems to not want it to end as the whole world does.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest.

This fulfills the requirements of a rhyming acrostic poem and is well written. The rhyming is good but the rhythm is a bit off in places ie the lines are between 11 and 7 beats. I would have tried to make it a bit more consistent. Finally I would say 'instilled within' not 'instilled upon'.
Good luck with it

This rhyming acrostic poem, POLITICIAN, follows the vertical first-letter word and suggests thatb the time for politicking is past and the time for action and results must finally arrive.

This is a sad, but strong poem. The first line is a well-placed reference to the Bible. The content is good, the rhymes are good. The picture of Trump speaks more than thousand words. Well done.

Well done! You must have had a lot of bad issues dealing with politicians in the past.
I have a few issues with them myself.
But you have a pretty negative view of them in general although in your picture you show Trump with dollars floating all around him.
Thank you for telling it like it is!

    Most republicans are fine. Trump is in a whole other category. Thank you for your review.

This is a well-penned rhyming acrostic. The text is an okay size. It could be larger because there's a lot of space in your poem box. The message in each line is clearly stated and easily understood. It would present better if you dropped the first line down one or two spaces and made your vertical word stand-out from the rest of the text. Make it larger or a different color would help. That way each reader can readily see your acrostic term "politician". The visual fits well. I wish you luck in the contest. You have a good entry if you up your presentation for your poem.

    Thank you for your great advice, I will try to improve my presentation, but I am not very good with that stuff. Also thank you for your review.

Moving on is easier said than done. As long as people have their own ambitions and agendas, it's unlikely that things will improve, it takes a concerted, mutual effort to achieve that. Beautifully written my friend, blessings Roy

A fine acrostic and it sounds like the mid terms was a very close call and not the landslide everyone expected. You certainly have a divided country just now with both parties at opposite ends of opinions and no matter who gets in next time the people will not be happy. A poignant write, love Dolly x

A well-written and thoughtful acrostic with smooth rhymes and meaningful words. Best wishes for your entry.
Typo:" Insights" should be "incites", I believe, to fit your context.
