“a swastika made of burnt meat” is about as original a description of a corpse I’ve ever seen. And the voice of the narrator is just the right side of pastiche. The last line sells it to me completely and makes me think this character has a novel in him.
That challenge I posted for Inanimate Eulogy was an idea for the eulogy I wrote for my computer when it quite literally melted. The title was this title
I always loved it, but I thought it self serving to enter the eulogy into my own challenge so I brought it over here.
It is a very nice title (I mean, it’s the reason I clicked in the first place). Very interesting premise. The first few sentences though seemed like they shouldn’t be so broken up; it read as a little jumpy to me.
And yeah, the swastika line was also great (how about I just say I agree with what spider said?).
Agreeing with Spider and Stovo on the title comment. I loved the line about young love. The title is misleading (in a good way) I totally thought it was going to be a love story.
