I Hope You Like This

Day after day , I put pen to paper.

Day after day, I criticize my own writing. 

I don't know if I'm original or just reciting . 

I hope you like this. 

Day after day, I get heavier not physically but emotionally. 

Day after day, I write poems and stories I never share.

I hide them because I don't think anyone would really care.

I hope you like this. 

Day after day , I dream of being published . 

Day after day , the dream dies a little bit. 

I should look into other things, but I don't . I write and sit . 

I hope you like this . 

Day after day, I think about showing my work to others .

Day after day , the fear of rejection looms . 

I'll take most of my writing to the tomb. 

I hope you like this . 

Day after day , I pour my fragile soul onto fragile paper. 

Day after day, I try to improve. 

I don't think I'm making any progress ,  what am I trying to prove?

I hope you like this .

"These violent delights have violent ends..."

Last Day

I never thought it'd end this way 

I've been led astray 

I was once a predator 

Now I'm the prey 

I would stalk pretty young things 

I'd watch . Waiting . 

When they weren't suspecting I would strike 

I'd cut their throats with one slice of my knife .

That's not all I would do . 

I'd make those girls mine .

Time after time . 

They were so pretty with their dead eyes and lips blue

But those days are over . 

I'm locked in a cell 

I'm the victim now . 

Oh , how the other animals make me pay. 

Tomorrow will be my last day on this earth. 

They'll strap me to a chair and fry my brain for all it's worth. 

These violent delights have violent ends.

Together, we can break the world record for longest book. When this challenge gets the necessary number of entries, it will expire and we will turn it into a book. Each entry will be its own chapter. Feel free to build from existing entries or write something radically different.

Dear World,

Dear world , 

      You started dying today . Your death began with the death of a few people . That doesn't seem all that strange or world changing, but those people just didn't die . They died then came back to life . Not alive like they once were, but alive . Alive and crazed by hunger to consume human flesh. I know this is the end . It has to be . You , world , are definitely dying . Dying violently . Going out with a bang. Good for you , World.

     You're not the only one going out with a bang . Today, I saw eleven people , I guess they're still people , get shot in the head by National Gaurd soldiers . The saddest part of it all? I'm sure today was just the beginning , and things are going to get much worse .

    You're not going to die alone world . People are going to die with you . Everyday . Until none of us are left .
