Hi y'all!
I just realized I didn't add why my form worked for my (incredibly weird and morbid) poem.
The beautiful outlaw really makes gives the reader crucial decisions to make: what words can I use, what can't I, what can I use to make these letters be used and not these? Since every letter of the alphabet had to be used (except for the one letter in each stanza) it was really hard to do. This is why I did contradict instead of contradiction. I also felt like it added a feeling of claustrophobia, which was cool because I'm sure (SPOILER ALERT!) the nun waiting to get an abortion would be nervous.
Again, I realize my topic is royally fucked up. But when Charles gave me contradiction as my word, the first contradiction that popped into my head was someone who was incredibly religious getting an abortion (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, anyone?) and then I was like, well, how would a nun get knocked up other than getting raped? And who would be near a nun? A priest.
Once again, apologies on the weird topic.
See you all tomorrow.
Also, Chelsea, you're a bad ass with that deer.
