“A is for Amy, who fell down the stairs; B is for basil, bumaulted by bears.” recited Casey from his copy of Gashlycrumb Tinies, “Isn’t that an interesting rhyme?” His wife Daisy took her attention away from driving their car to acknowledge her husband, “You know I hate dreadful books like that, being reminded of my own mortality and such.” Casey only had time to look up from his book as his wife ran the car into an oncoming semi truck, killing them both. C is for Casey, dead when he looked; D is for Daisy, killed by a book.

“Are you frightened?” I asked him, hoping I sounded brave.

“Me? Not at all.” The orange-lit outline of him appeared to smile, though I could not be sure. “Any damn fool can die. Takes a real hero to go on living.”

Thank you all very much for your drabbles! And to the winners, I’ll get the BP to you as soon as possible. Well done to you both.
