Death in the Pot! Hungry Elisha At wilderness school With his band of rowdy prophets Listening to no one Making a stew Of gourds and weeds Elisha sat watching They all took a portion They cried out at once! “O man of God There’s death in the pot!” “Throw in the flour,” Cried Elisha! Death left the pot The band of rowdy prophets Ate in peace. 2010 © Dayvid Graybill w/a little help from the writer of 2^nd Kings

Very clever. Gourds and weeds...hmm...probably a healthy fair but unpalatable, much like the prophets message. J'nia

Other than 'preaching' what good is a prophet, major or minor. Good write.
