Wow! You even managed to make a title fit in. It's challenging to do this level of constrained acrostic and still manage to come up with something that isn't impossible to comprehend, yet you did it--and it flows well in terms of logical escalation of events. NICE.

I've read them all and I think yours has come the closest to what they were asking for. This wasn't an easy assignment, I tried several different words but couldn't quite get it. You have my vote. Good luck!

This work has reached the exceptional level

Congratulations, this is really well executed and comprehensible. For a 4x4 it's exceptional. I like the dark approach you took. The only thing I think it might benefit from is some additional attention to presentation. I believe in the advanced editor you can force the lines not to wrap. I should have made some notes on this in the contest. However the simple presentation does reflect the demeanor of your reluctant Cupid : )

Thanks for a great read,

Harambe (for President)

    Such a gratifying response. Very many thanks. I am a Newbie and still grappling with the presentational elements.

I think you did a very good job. I looked at this contest and I said to myself, "You ain't there yet." I love the picture that you chose.
The poem is a good read and does say it all.
Good luck and Thank you!

The lines should be:

Love
Ovel
Velo
Elov

The L - O - V - E always stays in that sequence just one letter bumped off and put on the end each time. Your first and last lines are correct.

    It wasn't stated very clearly in the contest rules. It wasn't till I clicked back to their link to the previous contest that I saw that's what was going on.
