My brain is in pain
You’ve got me going insane.
Bright idea to try this contest,
Rather be doing something else I confess.
Am I that much of a trophy whore
I can’t pass up a challenge?
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
I can’t pass up a challenge
So now I’m trying this one here.
I can’t pass up a challenge.
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
Pretty much time for me to walk out the door
Am I that much of a trophy whore
I can’t pass up a challenge.
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
You’ve got me going insane.
Bright idea to try this contest,
Rather be doing something else I confess.
Am I that much of a trophy whore
I can’t pass up a challenge?
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
I can’t pass up a challenge
So now I’m trying this one here.
I can’t pass up a challenge.
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
Pretty much time for me to walk out the door
Am I that much of a trophy whore
I can’t pass up a challenge.
Now I’m gouging my brain and steadily going insane.
Author notes
The challenge for this piece was to do an acrostic phrase, the trick was that anytime a line begin with a letter, any other line after that began with that same letter had to be identical each time. Made for some interesting reads....

Heh, I love that picture. Good job sticking with the format; it can be right annoying. Thanks for entering. I enjoyed your humorous take.

I liked the obsessiveness of this piece with the repetition. It is very honest, an easy enjoyable read. The picture is great and fits the piece well, loved the face! Excellant write!

I was going to say that this was a very strange piece, as it it unlike you to reapeat lines so often... then I got to your authors notes and realized this piece had some pretty strange rules that applied...
this was an interesting piece and it made me laugh (which I sooo desperately needed today) It wasn't until the end that I even realized the piece was an acrostic... MUY MUY BUENO!!! Anywho, any "form critiques" I could give you wouldn't really apply here, given the nature of the rules, so I shall leave you with a JOB WELL DONE! Very entertaining concept for this.
