embers extinguished elegantly

concealed, cosmic circuitry

liminal, lumination lacking

intensive, introspective intermission

penumbra pleasance, prompts pause

shadowed sun, sheltered shame

enlightenment equals/eclipses entropy

    Well now, this is simply awesome. It seems we did have the same idea, and you've executed it perfectly! Great job, sir!

    Playful and serious at once, impressive.

    You managed to get double work from your phrasing ie extinguished eloquently and eloquently concealed and lumination lacking and lacking intensive… really well done!

  • Oooo, you combined an Acrostic and a Tautogram for each line! So brilliant! 🍩🥐

    woah woah woah 🤯. While the rest of us are trying to figure out how to start each line of the acrostic, Paul's over here combining acrostic with tautogram like a champ! Impressive stuff, my friend. You never fail to amaze me with your creativity!
