They deserve it, and really, what’s the worst that could happen?
Taking a drag of my cigarette, I exhale. Tendrils of smoke hang in the air.
No death penalty in Illinois. I’d go to prison, so what? I’d be looked after: free meals, medication, room and board. Fresh air once a day—I don’t get out much anyway. I can live with wearing orange. I could finally be a writer; everyone’s writing books these days. I don’t see any down side.
I wonder if they have HBO in prison?
Finishing my smoke, check the gun, and go back into the office.
Great reflection on modern society, and a way to be financed to write.
Informative and beautifully written
Thank you!!
Interesting thought process.
A bit dark perhaps but I do like imagining what goes on in people’s brains sometimes…
Haha. Nice.
Thanks, I enjoyed writing it!
Wow! I was blown away by that last line. It makes a tremendous impact.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
I smiled at the end, but really it’s not funny. But it is. Not. Is.
It’s not funny. But it sort of is. Sort of.
