The Angry Old Man Dies

  


The Angry Old Man Dies


By Craig Wilson


The smoke clears; I am sitting in my room.

Of course, I do not find this weird at all.

So I'm listening to an audiobook right now.

An angry elderly man hates everyone.

The neighbourhood avoid this old gent.

Local kids tell tales of this mean old man.

Suddenly, the old man dies on the streets.

Only a precious little child pleads for help.

The audiobook makes me feel quite sad.

It is difficult to move on after the book ends.

I take off the headset and leave the dream.


The End


The above story is a loose adaptation of a dream I had. If there is anything you would like to ask, feel free to leave a comment, and thank you for reading.
