A free verse poem.
Puzzled



The words came a c r o s s

Acrimonious, trenchant.


The words came

d

w
n

Belittling, pejorative.


I had no clue why they came a c r o s s

Deleterious, mordant.


I had no clue why they came

d
o
w
n

Deprecating, vituperating.



I only know they were crosswords.
