Bumpity Bump

It’s a lovely day for a stroll. The yellow thing’s come out to play

again.

Cloudless skies, lush green grass; it’s the sort of weather I’d

die for.

 

Take a stroll through town, just to see what’s there

today.

Not much different from last time; there’s more chewing gum

on the floor.

 

He bumped into me, said he was sorry,

begged for mercy.

Can’t blame him, but I didn’t believe it. He wasn’t

sorry at all.

 

Pull out a knife. Nice and shiny,

for now.

Everyone’s screaming, like I’m the idiot.

He started it.

 

Plunge it into his throat. Gut him.

Go for the heart.

Stab at his eyes a little. Doesn’t stand a chance.

The juice gets on my clothes.

 

I hate it when people bump into me.
