Fire and Brimstone


Wordle 289

The words smoke forth with bits of flame;

Leaks through the mind that saw the parts to miss

Church, temple, swing flat lies of blame,

But sense can track what eye may miss of this.

  3. When I was a child, we attended a ‘fire and brimstone’ church. I was terrified out of my wits every Sunday night. It was almost a blessing to get to school on a Monday morning and to be taught more useful things. 🙂
