This challenge was evil. DFA asked us to make a poem about an aposematism (animal or plant with secondary warning markings, taste, noise, etc used to drive off predators). He then wanted it to be done in an odd letter arrangement (for me every line adds up to 14 letters, 1 +13, next line 2 + 12 and so on). I'll post the link in details to the challenge. Here is the poem I wrote. If you are interested, let me know what you think?
Flowers, Lies I Learned from Bambi
A circumvention
An intimidation
The trepidation
Musk malodorous
Spray dangerous
Stench grievous
Bouquet noxious
Obsidian shades
Alabaster lines
Omnivorous eats
Belowground den
Reproduction in
Commemorating I

Reply:Todd, this old soldier, bows his gray head to you...

Reply:You win!
This is really cool...
Reply:I enjoyed this. The challenge itself is almost over-the-top for my meager talents, however seeing the work that TD and you produce is worth it.
Especially having a bad skunk experience (one sprayed under my house: took 2 months for musk to completely dissapate).
