Rebellion



This weekend we're asking for exactly 33 words including an idiom somewhere within.  Examples of idioms include - add fuel to the fire or wear your heart on your sleeve.  You can find more examples and a definition of idiom here.  Good luck!


This is one of my favorite idioms, and it made me think of one of my favorite shows, Firefly.  I've had a very difficult March, and these past two weeks I have felt very much as though I were in a war zone. I am very sorry if I did not get to read everyone's Trifecta posts this week; what I was able to read kept me sane!   



Out of the frying pan--

Behind smoking cars

Bombed out houses

We hid

Reloading

Staunching blood

Eating whatever was left

Searching for the smallest spark of courage

And then--

Back into the fire.
