Can i do this on my acrostic poem?

Question

Elie miraculously

Lived and almost died, after being rescued, from food poisoning.

Its for my english assignment and its my acrostic poem. I'm not sure if you can start a sentence then continue it on the next line

Thanks

Answer 1

yeah, and i find them to be more interesting if you do.

Answer 2

I have seen many acrostics in all shapes and sizes, some consisting of one word per line, others of a narrative with the letters at the beginning of each line seemingly picked from whatever word had it. I see no reason why you can't do what you want, after all, who is going to sue you?

Answer 3

You have used a time-honored poetic device known as enjamb(e)ment.

Answer 4

Yes. You can manage an acrostic poem as if it were freeform, as long as you stick to the first letter of every line being the word you are using.

Elict? What is this?
