Does the acrostic poem (extended metaphor) have to flat-out state what you are comparing yourself to in the poem itself. The first letters running down the side don’t count.

For the Poet Biography paper, me and micaela are doing Shakespeare, does the first Roman numeral part of the Outline have to be his name? And the topics for the outline part-do they each have to be one of his famous works? We both don’t understand the Outline part.

In the poet Biograhy, How are we supposed to make the outline? I am partners with cherie and we both do not understand what it means by your first entry or title is the name of your poet. I thought it was supposed to be like this:
I.Romeo and Juliet
1……………
a………..
b………..
2………………….
