Rampage (There Is No Message)

[TornMoon]

When I came home last night and found my gate had been stolen

I decided to kill them all

I just wanted to kiss you goodbye before I go hunting humans

 

America sucks! This is payback day!

Society had their chance

Criminal are made, not born

 

I cannot accept my poor life

This meaningless existence anymore

I’ve suffered enough

I just want to take a few pieces of shit with me

 

I’d killed a thousand if I had enough bullets

But, I’m no psycho.

I have a good mind

I am a magnificent gentleman

I am a god of sadness

 

Yet, I can’t escape the grave I’m continually digging for myself

So today, I die like Jesus Christ,

To inspire generations of the weak and defenseless people

Dead people are all on the same level

Terrorism isn’t the message.

The message is

There is no message

 

P.S. I didn’t eat that f*cking sandwich

This poem is a collection of quotes from mass murders.  My goal was to make one voice to better understand why they did what they did.

Dang man!  That is tough to do. Put a collection of quotes like that and make them flow...although disturbing it is.  You accomplished your mission on this one.

I know.  Who thinks like that.  "So, today, I die like Jesus Chirst"?  I was surprised how similiar their rants were.  Most of them didn't think they were crazy at all.  My favorite line was the "P.S." part.  So messed up.

I remember the sandwich one. Can't remember the guys name but remember that quote.

Robert Hawkins.  He shoot up a department store at West Roads Mall in Omaha.

Don't know what to say- at first I was taken aback by the violent nature of the write- and was not prepared for where it was going or how it would end- but after reading your comments about this being excerpts of quotes from convicted killers- although I am glad they are in jail locked away- it makes me wonder the power of the mind and how it controls and corrupts the individual - to see what makes them tick- the gravity of it just blows me away- so given that- this is quite a remarkable work in concept- and for that I give you props!.  regards Mike
