Mission

I'm trying to write a short piece of flash fiction everyday from whatever pops into my head at the time. It'll mainly be rambling unsubtle crap but hey, at least its something right?

Not A Pleasant One I Must Admit But Hey, What You Gonna Do?

I refuse to care about your fucking time of your life show on ITV. It replaces nothing that you have taken from the world, all the burning shit you’ve shovelled into the ocean still floats there, burning like oil on the surface.

I sometimes want to strangle you, wrap hands around throat and squeeze. Not to kill, to scare, to fill you with enough fear that it might kill you later on. My hands itch right now, scrabbling and scraping to crush windpipe with their fury.

Now they roll me away as I shout; I scream your name. They laugh about it later tonight, as your powdered smile winks out from the television screen. I can see it from the inside of my cell. My fingers scratch lines down the inside of the walls. Please, let me out, let my rip your face from its skull and shove it down your throat. It’ll be a relief for us all, honestly.

I will find you soon enough, rip out the walls of this place and disappear into the night. Take you away into the night too. I will eat more and more, gain strength, and then, I’ll come for your face. Our final meal; blood and tearing.
