Subsistence 'S.O.S' Suggestions
Sneaky subtitle
Scared shitless?
Silly sensationalism?
“Sure,” she says.
Superwoman-style seduces.
Supersonic strength sells.
Synthesizes sisters seldom sober,
spirit-softened.
Salvation-seeking smells so second-rate spawn.
Sadomasochistic screenwriters sold simplified self-awareness,
scheduled shenanigans/sordidness,
sacrilegious simulations straddling stormy seas
Sychophants.
Sellouts.
Stubborn sheep
Sometimes self-serving stupidity stifles stinkiness
Sotto voce suggestions summarize strategies.
Similar suckers syncopated.
Shameful.
Stick semicolons somewhere;
start shouting,
“Stop.”
“Seriously…STOP!”
Steady…steady…
…survivor sans self-denial,
“START SOMEPLACE!”
Savior-complex surgeon.
Scuffling scorpion.
Selective scorekeeper.
Starving sculptor.
Sanctimonious succubus.
Some secured secret.
Sweetest serenity
Sage sentinel.
Scum.
Select something.
Scrape.
Scrounge.
Second-guess.
Scrutinize.
Shake superciliousness,
sluggishness surrounding structured strongholds.
Stop.
Strategize.
Start.
Shine.
A tautogram is a poem that has every word beginning with the same letter and it's a challenging form to master. This is my first one and I'm truly grateful for your indulgence in reading it, so I'm hearting YOU right now!
Kindest of thanks!

Poemosaurus Rex Challenge Winners
Hard to conceive, now, how extraordinary it would have been to find the bones of those terrible lizards in the earth — in a time before humans had conceived of anything other than a Great Chain of Being, a static creation. Yet long after Darwin they still have a hold over us, these creatures which are the ancestors of sparrows and seagulls. All hail the dinosaur! They are at once real and mythic, objects of science and objects of wonder, exhibitions in museums and children’s toys. No wonder Vocal Creators responded with such a variety of work to our Poemosaurus prompt.
