Abstract

This creative writing project centers on three key foundational points of literature: the Bible, Poetry, and Propose. A key point was to illustrate how Poetry and Prose are subject to Biblical narrative. Hence the main source of the research is primarily drawn from the Biblical text with use of supplemental text to further realign poetry and prose under biblical principle to illustrate rich literary devices in proper context.. However, work isn't aimed to be narrow, its core intent is to draw attention to how the story is written whether in narrative or poetic form, and to depict how characters develop. After establishing the alignment of the three, there is a brief break between research portion and creative insight, to illustrate the present human condition with an original narrative. The author introduces two main characters: Mariney and Daimyan. This story is the opening of the human will outside of biblical context. The opening is a sample writing to begin Daimyan's rediscovery of himself through his poor choices and finally begin to reconnect with his mother. The full work is intended to grow the audience in and also work as a tool to expand creative expression on the page.
