My head pulsed as I pressed myself to set off outside. I dreaded the

night; shadows cutting into my eyes, along with echoing whispers

bouncing into my ears. I desperately wished to skip work, for the

night hours brought me nothing short of hell. I pushed my hair

back, struggling to draw closer to an excuse for my cowardliness.Im so fucking pathetic, I thought, shaking my head at myself. I

unbolted my door, and sprinted to my car.

he polluted night air ripped at my nostrils while I dro!e. I flipped

my phone on, struggling to play my music to distract myself from

the !ile city. My idea failed to work, as I lost signal inside of my

feeble excuse for a motor !ehicle. I slammed my fists on my

steering wheel, frustrated beyond words. he nightlight grew

darker as did my anger."s I approached my office, I couldnt help but feel that something

was off. I kicked my door open, and grabbed my briefcase. he

gra!el created clouds beneath my feet as I cautiously walked to my

workplace. I poked my head into the door which opened itself

selflessly to passersbys such as me. attered papers flew off of

desks as a gust of wind picked them up into its wide arms. he

blinds swayed as I fell, but I caught myself on my left hand.

" piece of paper stuck to my palm as I brought myself to my feet. Ipried it away from my cold fingertips, examining its contents. I

fucked your mom last night, it read. I gasped a breath of cold air.

#$ags% I exclaimed to myself, gripping the paper with my hand.

" figure emerged from the shadows, which danced along the walls,

not in the &hris 'rown kind of way, but in the kind of way which

possibly ignited forth a bowel mo!ement within my (eans, for the

figure was a piece of shit. he figure continued to creep towards

me. I grasped my pocket knife which lay inside my butt pocket.

&ome and get me #faggot% I screamed at the top of my lungs,bringing out my )wiss "rmy *ocket +nife.

I ad(usted my glasses, struggling to come across my in!ader. "

murmur brought its de!ious self into my ear hole which replied,

nly fags call people fags, a ball of fiery rage grew within my

stomach. -ow hypocritical, for him to e!en dare think of that, I

thought to myself. I lunged at the figure, like a spoiled teenage

schoolgirl lunges for a -ollister tshirt. he figure gripped at my

ankles and whipped me across the room like a ragdoll. "nother

piece of paper stuck itself onto my face; I ripped it from my nose,

struggling to translate the broken language which read, / M"0'12

he figure stood by the doorway, snorting manically, and inhaling

large amounts of air. I picked myself up with my battered arms,

scampering towards the exit. 3e me thinks that le you are mad%

the figure chuckled, placing his hand upon his face in sheer

en(oyment. I gripped my hair at the seams, fearing for the worse.

&ancer% I screamed, grasping my forehead. he figure drew

closer, whispering, 3eedle leedle leedle le, welcome to the #4agarmy.

5hat the fuck e!er happened to original content2 I 6uestioned,

standing tall. 5here are the days of actually laughing at a picture,

instead of coming across the same garbage that spews across the

internet2 "t this moment I push the figure into the doorway.

3ike this picture for this bullshit% 7% the figure hisses,

placing its russet feet backwards. he burning sun starts to pierce

through the blinds, My time to shine, I think to myself.8ou are the plague that riddles the internet, the cancer within

e!ery blackened soul. 8ou are the root of all that is wrong with this

world% I yell, grabbing the figure by its horribly misshapen wrists.

8yyou cant do this% it screams, 3e #4ag army will not fall%

3e we are one, le we are stro, I stab the piece of shit in the chest,

as he stops midsentence. -e plummets to the ground, spewing out

his final words, 5ho needs oxygen when theres swag2 3ike this

picture to win an 9box% 3lle gorilla face% I stomp on its face,

and pull my knife from its chest. $/////////% it screams,falling to ash.

depths of hell; I!e found that out the hard way. 5e all are human
