To Tell the Truth | A 100 Word Story

#703 | XII The Hanged Man - The Pit and the Pendulum | Edgar Allan Poe Tarot

You might think I need help or rescuing? Laying here under a swinging axe, as I am. But I don’t. On the contrary, I want to be here. I can think of no place else I rather be.

You might wonder why I am here? What were the circumstances that left me barefoot, facing imminent death, but accepting it with open arms. And I will confidently tell you, that is not the question you should be asking.

If I were you, I’d start with my name and where I’m from. That truth is far more interesting than my boring death.
