Look up the sky! It is raining. Hahaha!  it is funny, I shall get wet; I wouldn't mind so much But it is cold. The rain is colored crimson And everything is bathed in red. See the drops enfold This sad, sad world. Now I am soaked Now I am drenched Now I am covered With blood. I cannot hear nor speak. I am immobile. I cannot feel.  I cannot cry. In some ways, it is good. Silence will come and sing me her lullaby And I shall find solace In the stillness around.

Through the spoon I held, I had opened him and gouged out his intestines. Through the plate on which he was placed I had stuffed him and cooked him on the stove. He wouldn't stop looking at me Because in my hunger I had killed him. Silently, I pushed my plate away. I left my "meal" untouched And didn't eat for the rest of the day.
