Fireblossom Friday: Bang, You're Dead.

Bang, you're dead. Maybe that crazy kid driver ran you down, or maybe the aneurysm you didn't know was in your head exploded. It could have been any of a thousand things, but no matter how you slice it, you won't be participating in that charity run this afternoon. 

Still, this doesn't have to be the end, despite what you might have heard. Don't you feel like you still have something to say? Don't be shy. After all, what can anyone do to you now? Presentation is strictly up to you. Automatic writing, poltergeist activity, dream messages from the great beyond. C'mon, get happy! You're gonna slay 'em.

So. To whom may I direct your (phantom) call? What do you want, spirit? Time is money, chop chop, let's go. You're killing me here. Just write an original NEW poem and sign the linky. It never, uh, expires.

    Thanks for the (as always) extra-original challenge, Shay. I am out of pocket for today but will visit tomorrow.

    First time to post here, and wouldn't you know, I took it in an odd direction. Afterall, what do we care for punctuation & word usage?! Much gratitude to our host.

    Hello, friends. A massive Windows update kidnapped my computer since early this morning, and that is why I have not been to visit many of you. I promise to visit everyone no later than tomorrow! Sorry for the delay!
