What Killers are made of
By Melancholic VIncent
Suffering, anguish, despair and frustration
These are the stuff that
killers are made of
High-pressured pain
Starts building up
Till breaking point
Bullets are spewed
Start flying erratically
Sealing fates in mid-flight
Propelled by rage and fury
Bystanders
fulfilling master's intent:
Blasting recklessly through a crowd
Power leaking from the discharged cartridges
By the wrong side of
the gun
Bound to an impetuous urge
Let chance decide who lives
or dies
Sounds a bad therapy for inadequacy feelings

I heard all about it in the news, the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado. I don't know if unconsciously I was thinking about that, but it suits well. Unfortunately, I think those kind of things happen too often in there. The guy is 24, it's one year younger than me. It's kinda surreal. I understand very well, what those feelings above can do to a person. And handling a gun can give you a sense of power that if is misused.... you know what happen....

Well, I guess many people start on a killing spree, because they are dealing with their own frustration and other bad feelings, so if you look at it like that, it's a way to compensate for those feelings, it's a therapy, but a nasty one....

To understand the incomprehensible perhaps, and every hunter knows the thrill of the kill maybe - too bad the deers can't return fire, maybe someday like in Crocodile Dundee, when the kangaroo opened up on the poachers, classic!

Well, everyone sees the monster inside the killers, i'm trying to show the victims inside the killers.... Not that I think this excuses anything, but i'm just trying to see what everyone misses, what everyone chooses not to see. Just explaining why... Of course, there are various kinds of killers. This is one of them.
