Tainted Saints

A Limerick

By Mack D. AmesPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

The latter days of the saints

hath brought on cases of faints.

For the world gone wild

as the Devil's child

each night the town red paints.

    I share your sense of humor, so I appreciate how you tweaked "the latter-day saints" into "the latter days of the saints."
