a recounting of the Columbine shooting from the killers' perspective. |
the anger is building up inside taunting me with these demented dreams— dreams of death, rampage, hostility, filled with the sound of bloodcurdling screams. a single shot will take it away; a single shot will make them see. but why should i stop at just one shot when i could take them all down with me? those who spawn this bitterness of mine, who think they possess a godlike wrath, will know how it feels to be despised, to be the prey in my sweet bloodbath. a single shot could make it all stop; a single shot could make me forget. but i will not stop at just one shot... i have not fired these last rounds yet. i cannot take it any longer; i must put an end to this vile rage. it was really quite a foolish thing for you to let me out of my cage. a single shot is just not enough; a single shot won't keep me content. so i will not stop at just one shot... i must let this bloodlust run its course. i dare you to laugh at me again when this gun is pointing at your head. i bet you won't mock me anymore... my patience is gone; i want you dead. a single shot ended the insults; a single shot and i watched them fall. i gave them all what they deserved, and the laughter stopped, once and for all. now i lift the gun to my temple and prepare to take my own last breath. i will soon be free of my sick mind for there is no therapist like Death. <I>in memory of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold</I> |
