I found this dead bug on my kitchen floor this morning. I took the attached photos and present them for your perusal. I think the bug is maybe a clinch bug, something like that but it doesn't seem to have the little pincers in front.
I used my Nikon D800 and Nikon 105mm F2.8 Micro lens.

Thank you Brenda. I appreciate the kind words and of course good to hear from you.

Well sir I just looked up centipede and there looked to be my exact photograph. Thank you very much for providing a name to the mystery, no more, bug. I don't see them very often. Why he was paying my kitchen a visit I can't say. Certainly no food there for him so possibly he died of starvation.

Dennis, nice shots. I knew it was a centipede but there are different kinds of centipedes and I assumed you were looking for a more specific answer. I have a macro shot of a house centipede but this is not one of those.
