Crossword Puzzle(d)

This is a crazy poem I wrote late last year when I was in a wacky mood.
Just wanted to throw this out there for some general input.



Crossword Puzzle(d)


Satisfy
Four squares ACROSS:

Simple answer or torturous enigma?
Puzzles can be candy for the brain.
Or a thorn.

This puzzle shall entertain me!
Write black lines on white paper;
black and white answers.

Eraser: ally of guessers everywhere.

Quite Obvious
Five squares DOWN:

Only the mentally strong will
venture their time, their
energy, their intellectual
resources to sate the needs of
these letter-starved squares. Obviously!

With unyielding fortitude,
I shall use a pen - not pencil -
and confidently vanquish my grid-like enemy.
The overt words at first of course!

And when the clue
for an eleven-letter word for freedom arises -
Mr. Thesaurus here at my side
gives me deliverance.



.

Oh yes!!

I always, well mostly always, do a crossword puzzle a day and NEVER use a pencil! Pen to paper is my motto. Nothing mamby-pamby for a real he-man like me!

goldenrod.

Ah yes, it's good to see there's others like me out there who boldly tear into a puzzle with a pen lol.

Of course, I usually have at least one of section of the puzzle that ends up unreadable due to trying to correct my mistakes ha ha.

Clever!
