Shade (an acrostic poem)

 

So everyone turned to Clarice after Bob’s anonymous claim of infidelity

His smug smile staining the words even more

As Clarice’s spirit dimmed further under her friends’ looks of surprise and horror

Didn’t they understand the darkness she lived in?

Everyone should have a chance of finding a bit of sunlight, shouldn’t they?

Certify (an acrostic conversation)

“Can you show me for sure who you claim to be?”

“Even a DNA test wouldn’t be good enough for the likes of you.”

“Really that would be a great first step.”

“That was supposed to be a joke.”

“It was?  Security is no laughing matter.”

“For goodness sake, just let me have the stupid WiFi password”

“You can have it when I have at least twelve forms of photographic ID.”
