Shadorma  -  a Spanish 6-line
poem of 3/5/3/3/7/5 syllable lines

Acrostic  -  where the first letter of each
line read downwards forms a word

Shadorma
A fighter
Mysteriously garbed
Facing odds
Encountered
But still managed to face up
A fighter no less

Acrostic
Fighting machine
Individual flair enhanced
Gauged on strength of character
Heightened mood
Tendency to extend support
Engaged in siblings rivalry
Right of self defence
