My astrologer said I’d die by freezing.
You may laugh; I believed it.
So I moved – Jamaica, Barbados, now Bermuda.
Life’s pretty good – beaches, palms, a job in Tony’s Kitchen.
You know, that seafood place with the harbour view?
Where the freezer doors keep jamming…?
Maybe time to move again.

Love it! Clever and well structured.
My guess? He’ll die in a plane that crash because the wings hadn’t been sufficiently de-iced.
Well done.
Clever, comical, well done!
What a great story! Whimsical but, to bounce off Lynn’s comment, invoking Oedipus-level irony of fate.
Very funny, but also deep. Can we dodge our fate?
