Who are you, and what art is hiding in your name? In this Poetry Slam Challenge, we'll use our Steemit usernames to create some great poetry. It's a great way for us to learn more about each other and to share art in a fun and meaningful way.

In Acrostic poems, the first letter in each line is used as the beginning of the line or verse. Your challenge is to use your Steemit username to create an Acrostic, and here's an example:

PRUFARCHY

Perhaps in another place far from here
Riches are measured in spiritual coin,
Understanding is favored in the odds,
Fear is guided back to love
And love is Gold,
Readily available to those who seek,
Candles flitting in the yawning black,
Heroes of the conflagration
Yet victims all the same.
