this may not be the place for this...but re-reading this piece, to me it seems superfluous to have the "and" in the last lines of the stanza...and I think you've gone back and forth with this already? I might be wrong...but "so I rise..." works on it's own and is more succinct....last lines could be "I've burned. (period) then "I will rise...."?

All in all though, this piece is still as strong and declaratively owning perseverance and pride as when I first read it.

Dear Ms Nomad,

Thank you for reading and commenting. This most certainly is the proper place lol, as only a few words at the end may need to be adjusted, and am looking to publish. No need to go back to Revisions, as I am currently working on Manuscript. I will play with this for a while. I will also have Ms Jacquii, Amzy, Sartor, Isaac, and Nikos take a look, then it will finally be complete and ready to go. Thanks again.
