Okay, peoples... here are the solutions:
1 - the title is a haiku
2- the poem is a sonnet.. my sonnet is in here somewhere. I forget what page. If I find it, I'll put the page number here.
3 - the puzzle's final answer is KAMA SUTRA
4 - the words you get from the clues follow -- the correct letters are in red.
EXCALIBUR
CALIBURN
GAE BOLGA
LONGINUS
MONOHOSHIZAO
HAIKU
SONNET
WEAPON
INDIA
and that, folks, is the "rest of the story"

Good day to you, my name is X. I have been around gaia for close to nigh 3 years now.
Gaia unfortunately is losing much of its luster for me and as such I intend to find my amusement where I can.
Most that have come in contact with me have seen me during my give-aways, my extremely cheap sales, puzzles and riddles. That is what happens when you have nothing to work for in items in gaia. One gets bored with the game and you intend to look for people who you would enjoy conversing with. As such, I am looking for those who are new. Age cap is about 5 months in gaia or less. To give them a heart-felt welcome, and offer a small game where the prize is the following:
1 - Store Item clothing that will at a minimum be worth 40K and a maximum of 80K.
A - A new hair-style if needed
B - Accessories
C - Designed top including a coat and shirt
E - Shoes and socks/stockings
F - A hat
G - Vending and Trading Pass if need be
2 - The one picked will receive any(1) 2005 donation item to wear.
Ah, did I pique your interest now? Good, as there will be a contest as well as a harsh judgement from me in regards to your method of speech a.k.a. writing as well as how you conduct yourself in gaia. Oh, schnapp is that too much for you? Well, think of it, it is rare to find craziness such as this.
I am no true teacher, though I teach with my puzzles and my way of moving and going about things. Hence a puzzle will be best and of course me asking for a poem of a particular style.
So here are the things that need doing:
1 - Check out my starting title. Comment on it and its structure.
2 - Word Find Puzzle Pre-requisite. I will post this on the third post.
3 - Create your own original poem of the same form as the one I will make. Must mention the type of form by PM to Zacharov, so that others will have to figure out what it is.
4 - Once the word find puzzle is completed, there will be an anagram with all those words.
5 - Do not PM me for clues. This is the easiest puzzle I made.
Other than this, there will be judges on way of writing as well as how you act in gaia.
Once you are chosen, you will be placed on a list. I can see that many will be able to get to this point and judges will have a hard time deciding who they like best. So, when the time comes the ones that fill all the pre-requisites will be assigned a number for a dice roll or random number choosing.
Since this is easy every single one that gets to figure everything out, will get at least an 06 letter. What it is, is dependent on X's mood and when everything is done. I really think this puzzle that I will do this time is simple.
I thought this would be solved by now. My change is that the first to figure this out who is a newbling gets this. I really thought this was easier than this.
Items here for sale:
5 - 4K - July 06
Rules for selling:
1 - One Letter Per Night
2 - One Letter Per Person
3 - Do Not PM me at all or beg
OH! If you are chosen for the letter of the night, even if you do not have the gold, I will hold the letter for you for at least two weeks.
We will sell one thing per night cheaply. It will be an 06 donation letter per night till some newbling figures this puzzle out.
Addition: Gaians who are above 3 months of age. If they figure out the puzzle, they get 2 free 06 letters, their choice.
Today's item = October 06 = 5K.
