I classified this poem under alliteration because of the title

X marks the Gospel spot He’s the chiasm of B.C. to A.D. Like the Chi-rho symbol or ichthus fish There’s no disrespect, says R.C. X reminds us of Christ, [The Star that’s shining bright] It’s 1st Century shorthand communication While under persecution it was their elocution The 1st letter of His title in Greek Hear Him in His Word and His Speak Was it Winter was it Spring Was it Fall or another season Whichever, He is the reason for reason With angels bending, and the Act of God condescending Bringing peace to the Earth This we rejoice in outside the inn That X marks the spot of a King-sized manger The birth of our Savior And our release from sin The Rock that rolls away the stony heart of dearth, also Is rolling back the curse
