deadline
erin.
it
draws
nearer
.
my
pulse
quickens.
it
draws
nearer
still
.
i
am
fixed
in
fear
.
it
will
come
and
i
will
say
that
i
did
my
best
to
make
what
i
could
of
the
time
i
had
,
but
it
would
be
a
blatant
lie
if
i
failed
to
mention
that
i
spent
my
time
doing
other
things
in
order
to
increase
the
pressure
to
do
well
.
the
result
is
pompous
drivel
which
will
earn
me
a
satisfactory
grade
.

Random
letter
to
the
police
here
in
town
,
says
this
dude's
gonna
start
shooting
townspeople
tomorrow
if
they
don't
pay
a
ransom
..
blah
blah
blah
...
My
friend
made
shirts
with
a
target
on
them
,
that
say
"
Shoot
us
.
We'll
shoot
back
!"
I
told
him
it
didin't
matter
if
you
shot
back
if
you
were
already
mortally
wounded
.
He
just
scoffed
and
muttered
something
about
women
.
