AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a creative writing exercise where the first letter of each word forms a free verse poem, with a secondary acrostic message hidden within. The narrative depicts a chaotic scene of explosions and panic, highlighting the emotional responses of individuals in a crisis. Adam, a character in the piece, attempts to communicate amidst the chaos, while others express desperation and a desire for rescue. The conversation also touches on themes of mortality and heroism, referencing the tragic loss of life in airplane crashes. A participant reveals their authorship of the poem, which was previously posted on Zoetrope.com, and engages in light-hearted banter about their writing skills. The overall tone blends serious themes with moments of humor and camaraderie among participants.

Doesn't take much of a brain for this one. The first letter of each word spells out a free verse poem then the first letter of those spells out something else. Pretty much just need to figure out the spaces.


Something's happened, Adam realized. Explosions echoed along crowded hallways. People looked excited, agitated, severely upset. Reaching elevators, they realized each appeared stopped. Unusually rational, even emotionless, Adam called home.

"Move over, Man! EMTs need through! Be extra careful and use stair exits. Emergency vehicles enroute!" Rita yelled. Odors, noxious exhaust, reeking emissions, mortality entered moments before everyone realized, smoke.

"Everyone's not out! Rescue me!" Optimism unwarranted, Shawn leapt out. Suicide solved everything, stopping even nastier death, voluntary instead of like everyone now completely engulfed.

Everyone mourned, but responded. Airplane crashes enraged nation.

Entering into God's Heaven before ordinarily required, some thousand heroes earned respect. Especially since here our pain's eternal.

I am offended. Yes I wrote this. I wrote it a couple of years ago and posted it on the site "Zoetrope.com" It is no longer available to read on that site, but that's where I posted it.
I'm a horse of many colors, baby.
 
OK, sorry. I take it back.
 
I've got skills you'd have to see to believe. jk
