The Axe Murderer

She squealed as the man with the axe ran into the barn. She yelped and jumped as he moved toward her. Finally, he grabbed her and began to soothe her. He knelt down and leaned over her warm body. The axe quickly chopped off her head. Her body was limp. He shouted, “Who wants bacon?”

Clear
It was poured in. Slowly and steadily I grab it. It swirls, crashes against the plastic. It makes me dizzy. I pick it up; it falls without smell inside the hole. It swishes, and fills the darkness. After a hard days work my mom finally goes to the store and buys water. “Ah, thanks mom I needed that.”

Swishing, flying, through the air
“Put me down!” “Let me go!”
Screams of fear all around.
People watching with fear in their eyes.
“Good Luck” “Hold on”
Crying, Screaming, Praying Fearing.
Gears creaking, Eyes bulging as the air comes to a stop.
“Let me go!!”
“Stop crying baby, the ride hasn’t even started.”

    "I have advocated for 30 years that, in order to preserve our democracy and protect ourselves against demagogues,we should have courses in schools on how to watch TV, how to read newspapers, how to analyze a speech – how to understand the limitations of
    each medium and make a judgment as to the accuracy or the motives involved."

    ~Walter Cronkite

A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting. ~Henry David Thoreau
