    Wow, Tiffany, this is an incredible journey down the page. You put a LOT into this one. Well done!

    I run out of ways to compliment you. This is awesome, my friend! I love the repetition at the beginning, like a chant, or mantra. I was loving all of it and then I came to the acrostic and went "ooo!" My eyes lit up. That adds a simultaneous vertical and horizontal message, sort of similar to a cross... which accentuates the whole message here. An aCROSStic, if you will. I personally believe all creative energy comes from God. We are like prisms. We create our own unique colors, but He provides the Light, the Inspiration. It's clear to me you channel His loving energy. Your worldview is truly inspiring. I hope you win the challenge with this!!!! It's always a pleasure, dear friend. 🫶💕🫶

    Fire the bad made me feel like it was more like burn the bad? I don't know why. I love the repetition, it makes the message feel even more powerful.

    Great advice Tiff. if only it were that simple for everyone. If only thinking it could make all the unpleasantness disappear. Still, we send up the prayers. Well said.

    This is punchy, in a great way. Also, I learned a new word :) (deflagrate) Might be worth mentioning one line kinda sits weird for me. “Alight candles of discrimination” I know what you’re saying and I dig it. But I can’t help picturing an intrusive image in my mind, of lighting votive candles around a prayer altar around the intention of discrimination rather than the burning up of discrimination. I don’t think that’s a fault of your writing, and most people wouldn’t read the line that way. More likely I just got my wires crossed. Hopefully people will take your poem as inspiration, to burn away some of the bad and kindle more good :)
