Great poem! I like the structure. It flows nicely.
I didn't catch it at first, but the fourth and fifth line read, "...I stand up to kneel". I assume by "stand up" you mean to justify that you will kneel with conviction even when others don't understand. I think I'm reading to much into you're phrasing, but "stand up to kneel" sounds a tad contradictory. Despite that, its really great!
I love the imagery of the blood-stained hands. When set against our coarse dry hands, the poem evokes the fact that our wounds aren't as near the severity of what Christ gave for us. We can also cleanse our hands (soul).
Very cool...
yeah you got it
biggrin standing up to kneel part was right and you probably explained it better than i could have. justifying and standing up for my convictions.
i'm glad you caught it, it's a short poem thats packed with a lot so you really can't read into it too much.
you were close on the second part but it does go deeper, i won't explain it because i still want to see how it's interpreted.
thanks for replying! i really do appreciate it!
