How does one get the medias attention?
You dont just do the ordinary.
One would go for the extremes.
All in all to make a statement?
To show how powerful one is?

Some create a new toy
Others release a blockbuster movie
Countries might hold elections
And a man will run naked in the streets.
Or maybe...you think bigger.

Destroy a historical landmark,
Run people over with a truck,
Shoot civilians,
Behead people online;
Blow yourself up.

And you managed toget our attention.
You've divided people.
You've also created alliances.
Inflicted hate, rage, anxiety, fear.
You've made your statement

But, after we get used to
The shock, the fear, the terror.
What will you do then?
