Aspirations

A question I quite often contemplate:

Could I create a perfect poem form?

Regardless, I have too much on my plate

Old-timey styles are the established norm.

So what if I cannot carve my own niche?

To be original is not so great.

If coming up with something new's a bitch

Could I be blamed if I procrastinate?

Sometimes our dreams just lie beyond our reach

Our pride outpaces talents we possess

Nevertheless, our dreams can often teach

No person without dreams has been the best.

Ev'ry line's first letter should be read

Too meta, it just might explode your head

SPOILER ALERT DO NOT READ UNTIL AFTER YOU'VE FINISHED THE POEM

It spells "Acrostic Sonnet", for those who have difficulty reading such things. I almost cried when I realized it had 14 letters.
