NaPoWriMo 2015: Day 10

Prompt: An abecedarian poem (ie: a poem with a structure derived from the alphabet) 

Bad enough, right. Nooooo, my brain decides it has to use font names in alphabetic order as well. 

#10: GOSSIP AT THE COURT OF THE ABECEDARIAN FONTS

Arial’s buying Calibri dinner.
Eaten, Futura?
Garamond has Irma’s Jester.
Knock-kneed Lucida – 
Morbid numbskull or party queen?
Reel Scriptina’s Trebuchet
Under Verdana’s Wingding *xoanon,
You Zapf!

*Xoanon: Primitive wooden statue overlaid with ivory and gold.
