the ABC of war.
An acrostic co-write with Emelén


As the song became a sword


Time took a breath
Heard as a song
Entombing all living

And the song
Became a sword
Cutting the skyline

Orange to red
Falling on the child's head

Where a mothers howl
Attempted to
Reverse time

Aiii, the vacuume of a maternal shriek is palpable in this write.

These acrostics are neat, I love the added punch.
