About A Coward Writes of Death: And Other Short Stories:
Sixteen macabre stories. One anonymous writer. Your infinite wish for more…
Two things I know to be true: Life is short & death is imminent. Read some short horror stories and save your precious time. From vicious serial killers to bizarre slug encounters, this book has it all. Each story is headed by a poem, and for your wellbeing, it is best you read this one first, and get a taste of what I have to offer:
A Brief Introduction
To whom it may concern,
or perhaps to whom might pick up these brief stories,
I humbly share what’s inside my head,
or perhaps what has been,
or perhaps what will be.
As an emphatic gesture
for the reader’s sake,
it is with great sorrow that I shake
the trickster vesture
of a fact long forgotten:
Death is not a virtuous planner.
It cares not for ambitions, plots, or dreams.
Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries – it knows no such things.
When the clock strikes fifteen past your expiration date,
it slithers down your throat,
scales up your limb,
punctures through your chest.
A fatal drink,
a vengeful creature,
or a piercing blade,
are all supplied in the most unfortunate of times.
So if you find yourself in a bash,
or in such an awful spot,
remember, my dear friend,
Death cares not.
