Inspired.

From Melachim B
[for the Jewish-impaired, it's your 2nd Book of Kings]

And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said unto him: ‘Gird up thy loins, and take this vial of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead.

And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber.

Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say: Thus saith HaShem: I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.’

So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead.

Ok, so who was this young man? Why him?

*sigh* I guess I’ll just have to make something up. I’ve been inspired to write something about the rain, thanks to a call for submissions over at the Erotic Authors Community. Pity, this call seems to only seek heterosexual erotica; still inspiring though. Biblical queer and rain storms. I can do something with that, in a 1000 words.

On a truly funny note, my daughter and I were watching Smart Travels on HDnet and they were showing the ‘Cathedrals and Palaces of Europe’; and my daughter was looking at all the fresco’s and paintings that featured so many religious themes and scenes. She said, ‘Man, there was a lot of Bible fan art back then.’
