I wonder what they’ll see when I’m dead. The grains of time will erase me and leave nothing but bones. Ribs—hollow. Eyes—black. Hair—gone.
Hands shackled.
Ankles slanted.
Toes pointed.
Whoever finds me will discover a deceased reflection of what’s inside us all.

Great existentialist story, FTM. I liked the graphics, too.

I always feel thrilled reading your poems, but I’m curious about what you mean by “hands – shackled.”

The skeleton was shackled to a wall (like something you’d see in a dungeon, or perhaps an Edgar Alan Poe story).

Oh, that poor guy! Cool story. Poe’s probably dancing in his grave. ⌛️⏳👻

A great piece Fly.
Why was the poor guy shackled to a wall?
Was he a bad person? 💀🔪💀
Or just unlucky? 😢
