A to Z of all I hate

Most Creative Alphabets

Artists indiscriminate,
Billionaire bulls bears berate,
Careless kids insatiate,
Domination by dread State,
Effete fools effeminate
Frogs, slimy snails fat Frenchman ate,
Growing old, ungrateful state -
Hypocrites who soon deflate,
Intellectuals irate,
Jobbing backwards when too late,
Kits and cattens mewling mate,
Litigation, legislate.
Matrimonial stale_mate,
Neglecting rendez-vous, birthdate,
Overacting, things ornate,
Pastry spilt from pattern plate.
Queues, where late folks always wait,
Refusing poor, unfortunate,
Straying outside narrow, straight,
Trust betrayed.  Unfortunate
Undermining minds more great,
Varnish, make-up, snaring gait,
Wishy-washy writers' prate,
XX XY exaggerate,
Youths fine fortunes dissipate,
Zurich subprime speculate.

    "Holy hell. I couldn't do that if I tried. I applaud your dexterity and supreme rhyming skills, my friend. Very creative. The only problem was that the form you use restricted emotion; a list interrupts flow." I agree. Thanks for entering.

    Impressive

    The rhyming is superb and the alphabetic acrostic is impressive to say the least.

    Great job.

    Hilarious!

    You had me hooked and laughing all the way through. It's wonderful!! "Frogs and snails the Frenchman ate" was just one of my favorites, and I am sad to report that here in Spain, as well, folks eat snails. (Myself NOT included!) Yick!!
    Even though it was highly entertaining to read through the A to Z of all you hate, some of the lines were, more than something to laugh at, something to agree with. Another clever write! Thanks for sharing.

    That was very entertaining! Very impressed by how well you extended the monorhyme, although a few of them were stretching (lines E and R). There were a few lines that didn't employ the alliteration/conssonance, although the monorhyme created assonance, so it wasn't very noticable. The things you hate are very random. Is line X supposed to say XX XY exaggerate? Because the spacing looks odd and the Y confused me as well as throwing off the meter. Overall, a very creative, fun write! Good job!

    I definately do love this! It's very different and yeah most of these things I hate too. Love the way you got the end of each line to rhyme, it's hard to do but very tastefully done!

    I laughed. I laughed so hard.
    This is an amazing piece of poetry! It's hard to do a rhyming acrostic- I know, I've tried- and somehow, you with all your talent, managed not only to rhyme and keep a strong meter but you also rhymed the same 'ate' on each and every line (I state the obvious only because I'm still having trouble believing it even after reading it twice).
    I don't know if this other 'duh' thing needs pointing out- maybe others have already made it perfectly clear- but you clearly have an inexpressible amount of talent. I mean, really! If I could give more than three clappers, I would. You'd have ten sitting on the bottom of my box here.

    Excellent ABC acrostic. I've done these before and they only loo easy... add in a metrical quality, rhyme and metaphor to the stew.. and they are a challenge You've done very well, especially with using the sounds in individual words to help you along.

    This was a very good idea for this type of contest. I was going to do the same thing till I saw this one and now i gotta go at it differently cause you have a very hard to beat poem here. Great job

    "Queues, and where one has to wait,
    Refusing the unfortunate,
    Swearing, straying from the straight,
    Trust betrayed. Decrees of Fate.
    Undermining minds more great"

    I detest many of these same things, dear Scribe. Especially trust betrayed. (I just made a typo; "tryst betrayed", which falls under the "Neglecting rendez-vous or date" category, I s'pose.) Exasperating indeed, my Friend. I wish you only the best of everything, ever. Wanda

    Wow! Now, that was a bit of work indeed! I'm impressed that you were able to include acrostic, alliteration, and monorhyme into a piece and make it work so beautifully. Just my own opinion, but I'd remove the spaces between the first letters and their words. Too visually distracting for me. It's totally up to you, though, for this was a highly enjoyable poem. Thanks so much for entering my contest!

    All this and so many more I could add if only the alphabet was longer. This could be the mere tip of an iceberg but what I find amazing seeing this written down is how many people have said more or less the same thing and yet there never appears to be a positive change. I think I'm very quickly turning into Victor Meldrew lol
