If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you,

I just recalled that Laurie had used the Double - Acrostic Poem genre
and so I would probably would not get an originality point for an Acrostic poem - so I've added a Diamante poem to the post as well.

AUNFLIN: LOL
You left out the creation of nOObkind, and how they multiplied and spread across the face of the IBDoF, and how some of them were enslaved by pharoh into serving as moderators, and the origins of evil and it's role in the scheme of things, and how the 'fluff' threads were cast out of the reading room into the "margins" of the dead sea, ... oh, and tacos as the food of the Gods.
