The end is near I must tell you. And just in case I don't make it, I hereby give you my memoir, my autobiography. I don't pretend to make it as poetic and flowery as the bible; my tale need not have any aesthetic quality. There would be no verses, or any of such triviality. It won't be in testaments, old or new. This is not an epistle or a letter to the Romans or the Corinthians or any particulars; it is not a book of proverbs or any other form of praise singing. I seek not to give any commandment, or to promise damnation to anyone. It is not for self-glorification either. This is just the missing parts of the Other Book; the other side of the story. I am believed to be many things, especially the father of all liars, but only the astute know that I, Lucifer, in all the centuries of existence have fathered no one. I may not be truthful, but I am precise. It would be best to have the Other Book open, as you read this, but open up your minds as well, and judge this matter.http://www.mtls.ca/issue13/writings/fiction/kenechi-uzochuwku/ --
