Acrostic thread

[Olly Buckle]

Acrostic challenge.
This one may be a bit harder than the limerick thread, but still might be fun. An acrostic poem is one in which letters of the poem spell out a word which is relevant to the poem. Let’s keep it simple, shortish words and first letters of each line, at least at first. So someone gives us a word written out with the first line filled in;
T his is a word less heard
H
U
S

You get the picture, finish off thus for me and post a new word please:-

No particular rhyme scheme or meter?

[Gumby]

T his is a word less heard
H as few letters
U
S

ooohh zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzziiinnngg!!!!

you're on fire today moderan!

EDIT : moderan brought up a good point though, i think the acrostics would be more fun if there were other guidelines like syllable count or theme or meter or rhyming scheme or something more than just the starting word.

[Olly Buckle]

How about the person posting the word stipulates a rhyming scheme, the theme of the poem should be the word made up of the first letters, I think we should stay clear of syllable counts and such and stay fairly flexible so that we can suit other elements to the subject.
So let's take another easy one, I was going to say love, but that's too cliché so how about an ABAB rhyming scheme and:-

Hurtfully twisted up inside
A
T
E

[Gumby]

Hurtfully twisted up inside
Arrogant to a fault
T
E

[caelum]

Hurtfully twisted up inside
Arrogant to a fault
Tyrants feed it
E

[Olly Buckle]

There goes the rhyming scheme. want to try again rhyming with "inside" caelum?

I've got an even better idea How about we forget the whole f*cking thing? I don't understand it at all and if one with my high level of intelligence is left floundering, what hope do the hoi-polloi have?

"Stipulates a rhyming scheme." Jesus Christ. Wtf?
