Acrostics: A Hidden Art?

=mikahniamhjonas:iconmikahniamhjonas: reports, September 21, 2007
It seems that one of the most traditional forms of poetry, the Acrostic, has gone missing. Rarely are these poems seen, and when they are, they don't have a category to fit into.

Is the Acrostic a dying breed? Why?

deviantARTists, lets bring back this dying breed. With enough enthusiasm, the acrostic can once again be found in the iterature of deviantART.

Thankyou,

mikahniamhjonas
