Though a great piece its a bit dark for you
The last line gives it that humorous twist which
if you hadnt mentioned it being "dark humor"
we/'/d be none the wiser until getting to the final line.
A dead body hoarder...hmmm...if for any lengthy
amount of time that must be hell on the sinuses and
stomach due to the gut wrenching smell (lol)

Once again great piece

starts out really dark,
and then the last line,
"Because I have a hell of a
Lawyer", susses it out and reigns it all
back into even
more darkness.
Scary and dark,
because it emotes
a terrible truth.

just how many
bodies are buried
by those who can
afford one hell
of a law firm,
no one really
knows.

Or so it
seems.

Great write ---
says something
without saying
it, making you
think.

Peace!

I agree with Ingenious (anything but) Idiot. It IS a tad dark coming from you. That said, I THEN say, write more! Heck, we only use on average 6% or 7% of our noggin. Whop knows what would happen if we used untapped portions? John Travolta went super smart in that movie where he grew genius from a brain tumor. I liked the flow...a little herky, but on tack, with a nice dab of humor thrown in.

An interesting question arises from the movie premise.

Question-

Would you trade a long lifetime lived as a mundane, thoroughly average man to become a short lived flaming comet, but in that shorter time span, experienced a brilliance of intellect previously unknown to our collective human experience?

I/'/m interested in ANYONE responding to this. pm me. "Yes" or "No" answers are meaningless without defining why.
