Rendez-vous as time and tide
In synch are meant to coincide,
Grief leave behind, or, karma greet.
Hear arguments none should delete.
The right inalienable to decide
Thus sane need to retain worldwide.
One should not days or months repeat
Dire pain, before dread winding sheet
Eats up all energy inside.
Comfort who curtains draws. Abide
In conscience by choice to complete
Death's call when inner voice can choose
Exit that none should dare refuse.
Author notes
Acrostic sonnet : A Right to Decide
Either 'Fate' exists or not. If it exists then who is to stand in the place of judgement to say who should live and who should end suffering. If fate is a figment of the collective imagination none should oppose a decision taken by an individual of legal age presumed sane.

This is great...I really loved the style, and most importantly, I found the point, or meaning, behind the poem very thought provoking....
Thanks. -
Superb
Most intriguing, indeed. As a Senior Citizen, I believe that all of us have a right to die with dignity
instead of wasting away in so called rest homes. Again, well done. However, as you said, each individual has the 'inalienable right' to make his/her own decision. See "Charters of Freedom", website for information about our 'Bill of Rights'. Of course, there are probably other sites as well which would give information on this topic. -

the way you have written its really nice and understandable
i think i like the all but

although I must say I disagree I like your style here and for the most part the flow is well done

Obscure
I'm glad you explained it in Author Notes. The explanation is clear.
Acrostics don't appeal much to me. You seem to love them. -
This is an AWESOME acrostic! I love it! I totally agree! Your words were amazing and this piece, not only a great acrostic, had wonderful emotion, great rhyming, and a fantastic flow!

This is a really interesting piece and I love how you put it together in two forms, very creative and it takes talent to do that, bravo!

I'm not sure I would have got it if you didn't explain it.
I find it hard to read, because it is all cramped up like that, I see its acrostic so you probably can't seperate it into verses which I think is a shame, for I feel it could really benifit from this.
What do you mean by either each?
I really like the rhyming couplet at the end, I think that does really tie your poem together and make a solid ending bring out your point. -
Nice
Acrostic is my favorite style.. Great job..
