Ha, this little prose acrostic is a hoot, Ellijay. Now I shall have to try a story using the alphabet to start each line. Must not be an easy feat.

That said this is zany like a lil Robert Crumb and that means it's terrific.

Most enjoyable.

    Making the prose sound like natural conversation and be acrostic is never easy, for me, anyway. This was kinda fun...reviving old characters and chanting the alphabet...

LOL. Lutie comes off as a mean old bastard-- the real macho type. No softness in him. Then comes the phone call and his meek, loving response. Love it, but I do think the first paragraph needs to be re-paragraphed. New action deserves a new paragraph.

    I jammed the acrostic part into one paragraph, A to Z, deliberately... then couldn't resist adding the phone call...I am just not bright enough
    to make an acrostic read like natural prose...thanks for reading and reviewing.

I would think Moag dreaded seeing Bert and Lutie come in, knowing there would be no peace with them there.

Interesting story. I'd like to see more.

Hi Red,

Ha ha ha! This is a really funny write, my friend. It is very well written, with nothing for me to suggest you consider improving upon. Love the ending. Lol Thanks for sharing. Jan :-)

    Had to use some understood words to make the whole alphabet work, Fun brain teaser. My first acrostic story....

I was a little confused at the story line, the character names bring to mind a MC, big biker guys sitting around sharing stories..."Breezes ceased to be southern zephyrs" love this description! Although I was confused, I'm intrigued and would love to see the whole story.

    The main theme was the acrostic-26 sentences starting with a to z...I still haven't mastered a smooth flow acrostic...
