Favorite Quote:
It is a most elusive pencil


Silently
Waiting for the perfect
Time to strike.
I see him two-hundred yards ahead of me
Sitting there, unaware

What makes him the one?
Fate makes a deal with destiny,
And he transforms from hunter to prey.
I do not know him,
His name or his family,
It is better this way.

Now’s the time
To end it all.
Someone I do not know,
For a cause all but forgotten,
By a government who has long forgotten me.

Now I pull the trigger,
Not for any of them,
But for myself,
To show that I am
The better man
