I always enjoy this style of poetry. It is fun to play around with the ending words to make a summary sentence or two. The words repeated usually are the focal words. Supplies (from the) Road, Extracted Wisdom Sought, Negotiates Answers

A decent amount to unpack from such a brief work, especially with the poem coming across as having a lot to say, and very strict guideline under which to say it. A well done blend of echo and acrostic forms, too.

This was quite an undertaking. An acrostic loop poem with the same beginning and end. Great job! I also like the picture of those studious students.
Good luck with the contest.

Very clever poem! Well written and presented, plus food for thought. I enjoyed reading it (several times...). And could work just as well with 'lifelong' substituted. All the best in the contest!

A well thought out Loop poem that examines the topic of Answers...the poem flows well and the incorporation of an acrostic style adds to the overall coherence of the piece. Nicely done.

Very well done, combining an Acrostic and a Loop poem, to fit this contest of a poem starting and ending with the same word. Good picture, and good thought about choosing the answers that meet our needs.

    Thank you, yes I thought-start end with the same word that a loop was a good choice

Your poem meets the rule well, tells a good little story, and is unique in its construction, Mystery Author. There is good flow, the repeated words fit in nicely, and the message is clear. Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

the acrostic is fine and your intention to loop this is in line with the prompt but the following need attention:

Typo here: '...answers exracted' => extracted. You have it correct at the start of the next line.

Typo her: '...supply's' => supplies (error repeated in next line)
