Hunger for Greed
An Acrostic7 total reviews
Comment from Lovinia
I think this is a very clever acrostic.
Flows well and expresses so much of the world's dilemma in so few words.
The image is a fantastic complement to the poem, a satire in itself. Definitely an image of man's greed and vanity. This is clearly understood after reading the poem.
I have only a small suggestion. While this image works well after reading the poem, I fear for those casting a casual glance may misinterpret the image as funny which does not balance with the tone of the poem. My concern is the valuable words of the poem, so well written, may be over-looked.
I mean no offense, and I do understand your thinking using the image. I am only afraid the greatness of this poem will be passed over.
Warm regards - :) Lovinia xo

Comment from Denise S
An awesome poem with a very powerful message ,it was well done, I could shake your hand, when you wrote about over breeding. I have been thinking about the same thing and how they advertise so much sex on tv and dont look at what is happening to the people who watch
