Fail Forward
Hey everyone! So this is totally different than my usual. I was reading "How To Be Me (a slinky)" by @xlntwtch2 (on dA not Tumblr) little while back and well... turned into a funny conversation there of what if someone wrote a "slinky" with some really difficult word (slinky is supposed to be a sixteen line poem where one word is repeated on each and every line). I chose "Eiffel Tower", mainly because I thought it would be very interesting to write something with Eiffel Tower repeated over and over again... I wouldn't say this is my best work, has the strangest rhythm with Eiffel Tower repeated over and over lol, though I took some liberties and cheated a bit It was lot's of fun to write though actually, turned out better than I thought, and I decided to make it even more interesting by well... making it a bit of a double acrostic as well Enjoy! -Phnks
Fail Foward
The shadow of the Eiffel Tower bent Heavy the glare of Alexandre Eiffel's tower, though Eiffel Tower has but quaint purpose ...but purpose BUILT-the Eiffel Tower's iron stands still... Emancipation of my own creation only Eiffel's towering visitation came I, as Alexandre's namesake had lost my Eiffel Tower: veni vidi vici Friends proclaimed, even now Eiffel towers above myself Flung from the Eiffel Tower losing my iron ring in that shameful jumpoff Everyone ran from my aura to the fair Paris grounds of the Eiffel Tower's make Leveraging lethally my love's languish, I laughed, leaving Eiffel's towering level ... A champion created countering Eiffel-towers threaten that trained theatric... Today no delay, I shall climb above Eiffel, towered bewilderment Onward! I'll catch my own iron ring from this Eiffel Tower. No Was Eiffel's tower wrought as he wore that same ring? He was no such fellow Eiffel's towering construct was born through will alone, no pointless symbols did he own; perhaps we misattribute Rings of iron are made not given, proof in Alex's ambition: the Eiffel Tower
