You lie before me on a cold stone slab.
You lie before me on a cold stone slab.
My knife is poised. I lower it, draw the silver blade slowly across your moist white skin and slice into your bulging bleeding veins.
My body quivers with excitement.
I pour warm crimson liquid into a crystal glass and raise it skyward. It glows in the sunlight...
...then I break bread.
I am ready.
Melting Dolcelatte cheese, crumbling focaccia bread and a glass of ruby red Molino di Grace Chianti Classico 2004.
There's nothing like a picnic in the woods.
I am salivating.
ReplyDeleteMe too! Cheers
DeleteGreat story Keith! So chilling! Nothing like having a picnic with someone you have just killed!
ReplyDeleteFortunately the victim was just a lump of cheese! Thanks PJ
DeleteReminds me of my sons when they are cutting into the baked brie for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteYum-yum-yum!
DeleteI see a fine blend of the word-artist plus the food connoisseur in this piece.
ReplyDeleteWell thank you! Being a chef helps I suppose!
DeleteThis gave me goosebumps...
ReplyDeleteSorry about that Reena! At least it was only a chunk of cheese!
DeleteOh, my...well written but very chilling!
