Wordland 4: Whited Sepulchres
"...for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward
but are within full of dead mens bones and of all uncleaness." The Gospel of St Matthew 23:27
Whited sepulchres
Whitewashed and gleaming in in the sun.
Whited sepulchres
The politician's smile
The deceiver's handshake
The freshly painted house of secrets
Whited sepulchres
We know where to find them
Let us show you.
Take our clammy, tremulous hands, and we will lead you inside and deep into their rotten hearts.

Thank you for visiting Wordland 4. A tricky theme this, one that has taxed our writers' interpretive
powers and as a result, produced some highly creative and thought-provoking prose and poetry;
some of it angry, some of it beautifully imaginative, some humour, some fantasy, and even a little
horror. And all of it showing that a theme is just the start, the spark, the cracked-open door. So, in
you come, but keep your eyes and your mind open...
