0801NWhen I awoke this morning in my usual four storey abode and jumped out of my
0801N`smoch` hammock I could scarecly grace the floor before I realised the
0801Nhideous truth: I had demised in the night and I was no more than a walking
0801Nghost - a mere spirited man-spirit. I looked for the corpse of myself but I
0801Nthink someone may have took it somewhere else.
0801N
0801NI immediately phoned my best friend, the unnamed man on the end of the
0801NSamaritans phone line. I spoke for what must have been literarly seconds and
0801Nseconds before he put the phone down on me telling me to fuck off. The only
0801Nobviously conclusion that he had been unable to hear my greetings because I
0801Nam dead.
0801N
0801NI started to think about all the things I should have done with my life and
0801Ndidn't. I'd never been to a comic mart, well not a major one anyway, never
0801Ndenied myself a visit to the toilet and never spoken to a lord or man of the
0801Ncloth. Okay so I'd never do these things now, but hardly a wasted life... I
0801Ngot 6 O-levels and a computer literacy award from Barnsley library. As the
0801Ndead go I was cool. It.
0801N
0801NI decided to haunt some of the neighbours across the landing of the hostel
0801Nbut they also told me to fuck off, so they must not have known I was there
0801Neither. I had only a ripped dishcloth on as haunting guise and the children
0801Nnext door looked quite shocked so I think I must be quite a good ghost,
0801Nalthough I could have done without the laughs. Still mother screamed.
0801N
0801NNow I've decided to type up my death. At first I was worried that my fingers
0801Nin their new form might jerk through the keyboard, but with the aid of my
0801Nmind I willed this article to be written. I even can do backslashs = - /
0801Nthat's it! Yeah.
