Read Your Bible


Entering George's study, Karen was shocked.


George was a Bible thumping preacher. Proud, until the day before, when Karen caught him searching the internet for pornographic pictures.


She had chided.


Guilt seeped in.


In despair, he turned his bloody face to her, “If thine doth offend thee, pluck it out.”


If you have written a Friday Flash 55 that you would like to share, be sure to visit Galen at G-Man, Mr. Know It All, and let him know. Have a curious weekend. Donnetta

Both eyes, or do we call him Polyphemus?
Loved your 55 Donnetta.

Hi, Jannie: Thank you! I'm glad you 'enjoyed' it. D

Thank you, Mama. Just a little bloody. Good for the soul. Or his soul anyway. D

Well if porn was in the groin of the beholder...(Free association bringing to mind the New Yorker cartoon of the lady letting her dog out the front porch): Out damn Spot!

I would have thought a real bible thumper who wanted to repent would do the Swaggert and cry on TV beg for forgiveness and donations.

Donnetta Lee said...

Morning, Brian: Guess he's marching to his own drummer. Or-whatever! D

Donnetta Lee said...

Hey, Ivan: Yeah. Self inflicted wounds are the worse kind. D

Donnetta Lee said...

Hi, Mark: Oh, there are thumpers and then there are thumpers. No telling what poor wife has had to put up with. Now, she'll have to be his eyes for him. Now THAT'S scary. D
