The Last Thing He Saw
San Francisco, CA
It wasn't what he expected when he set out that night.
He saw a flash of light, but didn't feel anything.
Mostly it was the odd sensation of watching the world around him turn all sideways and the ground reaching up. Very odd, that. Just like in the books.
The last thing he saw were the sparkling lights on the buildings that reflected eerily off shiny paint... symbols amidst the beautiful graffiti... more art than graffiti, really... wow, that's really pretty.
Then it all went black.
He didn't see it when the angels lifted him up.
An old drunk did, but nobody believed the story.
All anybody knew was that when the police came, there was nobody there.
All HE knew was his life was just beginning.
