Yeah, I've often wondered about abbreviations and acronyms in poetry. They have different meanings, but are similar when understood.
Thinking about it, the long form should be used here instead of the abbreviation...it looks lazy; unlike acronyms.
All acronyms can be abbreviations, but all abbreviations cannot be acronyms.
As I understand it, an acronym is when the initial letters make a word, and an initialism when they don't.
