Submitted by Quill To Page

Write a short story or poem that starts with a letter.

A Threat Most Gruesome

_“Susan,_

_You know,_

_Your death will_

_Put on_

_Quite the show._

__

_Blood,_

_Brains,_

_Spilled on the floor,_

_My promise to you is_

_Gore!_

__

_When the bullet _

_Passes through_

_The head_

_On top of you,_

_Blood will rain,_

_Though you_

_Won’t feel the pain,_

_Luckily,_

_You’ll already be _

_Dead._

__

_Sleep _

_With one eye_

_Open…_

__

_You just might_

_Live_

_To see tomorrow’s _

_Morning light…”_

__

My eyes

Widened

In shock,

For I had just received

A death threat.


Who

Wanted to kill me,

And why?


I’ve tried

My best

To be

The best me

I can possibly be!


What have I done

That was so wrong?


Who did I hurt

To deserve this?


Who would send me

A threat most gruesome?
