Distraction -- Caffeinated
Another Crisis Averted
Daylight turning into night, Iโm in a state of panic, my paperโs due by 8 a.m., I need those beans of magiC
I feel my energy begin to wane, and the very thought of, this looming morning deadline calls for a cup of javA
Sleepily, I clamber to the kitchen and take a little peek at, the contents on my pantry shelves, please anything but decaF
The precious nectar of the gods is a high-octane fuel, time-tested, mom-approved, and absolutely foolprooF
Remedy to fend off sleep and to generate, dopamine to remain alert, upright and awakE
A sip, and energy kicks in, I think that I am ready, for another sleepless night, hot coffee in my YetI
Charging like a battery, now, I feel the caffeine kick in, all systems running smooth, my spirit begins to strengtheN
Time to get this paper done, but first I must inject a, bit of life into this room, some ambiance, โAlexA
I need some peppy musicโ, good tunes to stimulate, and distract my mind from slumber, turn the volume up to eighT
Operating on pure caffeine, full tank of fuel in store, I know that I can finish, just a couple hours morE
Now submitting my paper โ overjoyed and elated, but sleep will have to wait for me โ Iโm over-caffeinateD!

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO ELLEN MARIE
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO ELLEN MARIE *** just had to know *** ++++++++++++ As Mike drove through the town he hadnโt seen in about twenty years, he wondered about those heโd left behind when he left for what he thought would be โgreener pastures.โ He wanted to make his mark on the world. Determination drove him and the little town of Meadowville wasnโt where he wanted to be.

Excellent!!! This is very well written!!!
Beautifully done! Loved this so much!
Wow that was outstanding!! I love that we both thought about using the final letter of each line to create a double acrostic!! But this one is on another level, I absolutely loved it! Yeti, Alexa and the final rhyme are my all time favourite ;)
I love the double acrostic. Great job!
I'm a sucker fro style and creativity. This is wonderful! Strong opening line. Your word choice is effective, effortlessly descriptive, and thoughtful. This is the kind of poem I reread, analyze, and come across something new every time. Now this is a winner
Oh wowww, this really impressed me! That was so awesome what you did there with the ending letters! Not easy at all but you did it perfectly!
๐Enjoyed this little slice of life! This was neat - and a fun twist on the challenge.
Okay, we are speaking the same language... ;)
Yes! I love this so much. Amazing job and so clever! The double acrostic!! Iโm gonna go make some coffee right now. ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
after reading it i feel like having a cup of coffee
