It’s Monday. Time for another “100 Word Stories” microfiction:

A Dead Man’s Testimony

The doctors declare me dead.

I am flabbergasted. No, I’m alive! And yet, I can do nothing to prove my case. After all, my brain had been turned into mush after I was thrown off my motorcycle.

Tania, my wife, is crying profusely. Comforting her is my father, though he’s no less dismayed. My brother Matt is bidding me farewell.

If I can scream, I would tell them that I’m still alive. Alas, I have no control over my faculties. But my heart’s still beating. Surely, that’s proof enough of my life!

But then again, I am an organ donor.
