Re: I wrote an epic poem :P

Bookmarked this when you posted it and just started reading tonight. I find myself completely enamoured and regretting that I started reading late in the evening! So though I've not yet even gotten to the creation of man, I just wanted to jot down some thoughts:

This is really beautiful. The rhythm feels natural (this is a pleasure to read aloud) and the rhyme unforced. A lot of that comes down to the precision and variation in your language. It's vivid, conjures specific images, and your use of repetition helps to orient the reader through the long poem.

It has been some time (oh, probably 14 years or so) since I read the story of creation, and this is a very nice way to return to it.

LatinAlice, just curious if you finished smile How was the creation of man and woman, and (of course) the fall?

Witness me!
