Snowflake

Snowflake

Saturnine is the word that comes to mind -
Not that it is necessarily apt
Or that it’s the perfect word I find
When all my energy is sapped
From wrestling with the possibilities
Latent in acrostic nightmares.
Aware how futile are my pleas,
Knowing too the form disturbs my ease,
“Enough,” I hasten to declare.
