Perhaps a broader-acrostic..? 🤔
I wonder...
Would love to hear some suggestions:
Ooh 🤩 well, I'm an ancient Greek afficiando so I'd go with "Vasis poetry" pronounced as vắsĭs meaning stepping, step; (collective) steps.
Or "apples and pears" is used to mean "stairs" in Cockney slang.
In my language Tamil, it's called padi (pa as in pu in pub, and di as in dee in deed.) kavithai (poetry) pronounce 'ka' as in 'cu' in cub, 'vi' as in 'wi' in wit and 'thai' as in as in 'they.'
All are unique, imo. How about you? What will you name it?
