Acrostic! Yes. And it rhymes. And it's self-aware.
---
Out of the dark, I hear a creak.
'Neath the sink, "drip drop" goes the leak.
On the mantle the clock says tick and tock.
Many birds outside screech, caw, and squawk.
A cannon far away makes a mighty boom;
The cars driving by go whoosh and zoom.
Outside, a trolley says clatter and clang.
Pulling the trigger makes the gun go bang!
Onomatopoeia like "boing" and "pow"
Evoke certain feelings like awe from "wow."
In French, a frog says "gowap"
And I feel like this poem was a "flop."
