        clink

            put your hands up!

everybody, down!

he counts.

one -

he thought of hands,

grappling him in the bathroom.

two -

the hall's silence, the classrooms -

well, class is finished.

three -

all that he went through, everybody watching

why the hell did they let them tear him to bits?

four -

a few dozen fingers, frantic breathing;

- mom, i love you ! -

- dad, you too ! -

- god, help us. -

five -

there's an ingeminated bang.

oh, wait! - there's a ring!

                       a phone, maybe we're not alone -

nevermind.

that's just me.

well, now, when i close my eyes

at least i'll go quietly,

unknowingly.

next time,

maybe we should try prevention

instead.
