Blackpink Acrostic for Name Dropping
Will Hull should not expect anything funny
Just when I turned savage
I saw men thinking we were something to manage
Sanctimoniously crying out loud words that should have not been spoken
Oh baby baby please
Oh baby, be a good girl now. Now, just as the snow drops.
Rumour has it, I’m a bad feminist, but feminist nonetheless
On the ground — where’s the snow? — prepare to soar, nothing less than
Silvery wings as I shine my mantle
Early in the morning I spread to flee: baby, baby please, be dead and gone
Just like that, dead and gone
Every time I start a love — I end up solo
No one to keep
No one to feel sorrow for me
Immediately after the chain breaks
Elastic, I’ll live again. But in the
Labyrinth. I lie
Impervious is jealousy to gender
Salvation comes not from man, sure, but neither from women. Solo and gone
A lost soul only, at the end of the month and the weekend.
As I cannot be funny to save my life, I went depressing.
As you’ll notice, the first letters of each sentence plays a part in spelling : Jisoo, Rose, Jennie and Lisa. Why? Because my dear friend, Will Hull, challenged all of us poets of Medium to name drop, in honour — one could say — of Ted and the dead cat.
