Question:

Alphabetic poem? What do you think?

This was an exercise for poetry workshop. We had to write a poem in which the words followed the alphabet. The professor challenged us not to start with A, so I didn't. What do you think?

Queen Guinevere??s Trial

Zealous accusations burn
Camelot.
Dying embers flare,
Gesturing hellishly,
Imitating jousting knights.
Lancelot mounts,
Noticing one peril-stricken queen,
Rides, spurring towards
Upheaval.
Virtue wasted,
Xanadu yielded.

Um quick question though, I can't remember who Xanadu is, is it a character in the story? I haven't read it in so long...
