Those Who Pray

And those who prayed for the lightning to show them the way, were then struck by it and burst into flames. And when the winds rose they blew their ashes away. One by one, and day by day.

This poem gives me so many scary images in my head and thoughts. I gave it a 7 because it had to be difficult for you to write and you expressed your ideas so well...
