Born Again

Impaled embers forsook
damp crevices elongated 
wide orifices inhale poised 
pain wrapped in prideful
Splendor.

Sprint gallantly, reform
denying absorbed death
exhaling hope anew
evermore proved extreme
Brillance.

Spread wide softly,
overtake righteous screams
whisper mist appear brightly
Resilient.

Put together words nicely but we should never take the direct words of Jesus, "Born Again" in vain. Amen www.jesuschristvisitation.net

Hi Sona, remember the direct words of our Lord and Savior. What is born of the flesh is flesh. What is born of the Spirit is Spirit. This what I mean and the Lord also. We can never mix the two. Amen, www.jesuschristvisitation.net

Confused on how my rebirth after sexual assault is taking the title "Born Again," in vain. I'm a born-again Christian, and I've experienced a rebirth in many areas of my life.

Hi there. What a beautiful Free Verse you wrote there (it's not Blank Verse). You have beautiful imagery in your words :)
