Yup! Rak Chazak Amats is the Kingdom Pen Battle Cry.

Pronounced: [Rock] [Khaw-Zawk] [aw-motts]

Rak Chazak Amats is an ancient Hebrew war cry used before going into battle.

Joshua chapter one is a perfect example when God commanded Joshua to be “strong and courageous” and go into the land God had promised His people.

Ok, I can move them. Let me know the titles of the ones you want moved over.

I was looking into that and my understand is no, that’s not possible with this software, but I’ll do more research.

Great post! I just created a new section just for roleplays.

Welcome Liska! Happy to have you here, and so cool you write fantasy stories based on scripture!

How did you find KP?

Welcome Bilbo! Sounds like you are embarking on a grand adventure!

Thanks for joining! How did you find us?

I love the imagery the words create! Your style is very different from mine so I don’t know how helpful I can be, but I’ll try! 🙂

What meter are you using? (I’m not very familiar with meter so I have to ask.)

The rhymes are slant rhymes I think? They’re not exact. But it’s pretty consistent until it gets to the last stanza. I don’t think that…[Read more]

I love the freeverse (that isn’t freeverse) poem! 🙂 Absolutely! Tag me when you post that poem that’s giving you grief. @koshka

Goodness me, I thought I replied to you ages ago, @koshka! Sorry! Now that I think about it, I went down a rabbit hole of web searching and trying to figure out what sort of poem it was, and I think I started to write a reply but must’ve never posted it.

Essentially, it’s a rhyming poem, but not a metered one. Some sources consider it free verse,…[Read more]

Now that I think about it, I’m really stuck on the edits so I might as well share what I’ve got here and see if you guys can’t help me get unstuck. I’ve made a few small changes that you may notice, but the main thing that I’m struggling with is settling on an ending.

I’ve written several endings that all have slight variations in words and…[Read more]

Thanks, @karissa-chmil! This is definitely one of my poems that I find myself going back to a lot and rereading. The atmosphere and imagery of it really draw me in, and I like pondering the meaning of it. 🙂

One of the edits I’m considering is possibly connecting some of the shorter, broken lines in the part of the poem you mention. It’s supposed…[Read more]

Thanks, @koshka! I love the layered meanings of words too. It was funny because I drafted it so hastily and impulsively that I didn’t even realize the full depth of meaning I had woven into the poem–until I was reading and rereading while editing. It was intentional and yet much of it was subconsciously done.

I just let all of the mixed-up…[Read more]

Thanks, @koshka! That would be great. 🙂

I wrote this poem after my uncle’s passing. He was self-taught on guitar and left a few of the instruments behind (as well as many people who loved him).

Okay, I just deleted the old post from my feed, redid the post and reposted it. It worked. 🙂 @kathleenramm

I think it must’ve marked it as spam before because I edited it a few times? Not really sure. Weird.

Thanks, @whalekeeper ! 🙂

Hi, @kathleenramm ! I haven’t tried reposting it yet. It’s still hidden so far as I can make out. I see on my profile that I made the post, but it’s still marked as spam in the thread section.

Awesome, @acancello! I prefer that one too! 🙂

I’ll think about it for sure, @light-warrior-pen. 🙂

@avancello, your comments made my day! I’m so glad you like my poem! 🙂 It really makes sharing it worthwhile! I was seriously thinking about just burying this poem after editing it, but maybe I’ll publish it somewhere after all.

I’m actually considering altering one of those lines slightly, so I’m curious about what you think.

It would be…[Read more]
