I worked on my piece for hours that went into another day and yet, you fashioned 2 poem with the double acrostic. Kudos to you. I particularly like poem 2. It sounds like a love poem.

I liked watching how you honored Ms. Maya in the first one, and then took possession of her lines for purely your own purposes in the second.

I particularly love the first one, and the line " she wrote with what felt like<br />certainty" because it captures that feeling of drafting so well. And I like the way the second poem grows and grows, expanding as the questions do!
