Death Seeking An End She shot herself! And if that wasn't enough, she shot me - first! She died - I didn't. But if being paralyzed from the neck down isn't death - what is? I only hope to live long enough to spit on her grave. Even better, I'd like to dig her up and scatter her bones in a pen of a thousand pigs, and feed them nothing until the bones are gone, and have come out the other end. I seethe inside because I can do neither. I can only burn with an anger that knows no end, every day, twelve full hours, every night that goes on forever. She shot herself! After she shot me. She died. I didn't. Now I am Death not knowing how to call it an end. © wesley james beard, jr. june 8, 2017 [This message has been edited by jwesley (06-09-2017 09:18 PM).] |

Jimmy, Simply shocking! Outside your typical perimeters. Way to push the envelope! Nice flex of the pen. ~L |
