bijou my heart stopped for a second that night at work at my desk fixing the pictures for the paper, my heart stopped when i saw those burned up bodies strung up on the bridge and that boy peering straight out of the picture burning a hole in my brain, he hates me. he knows i will see this picture and see what he has done and then maybe i will understand. i saw that picture pop up on my screen like the rest of them do, but i just stopped and choked and tears fell right out of my eyes on to the keyboard. i could see where the flesh had burned away from the bodies and only broken bones were left, holding together parts of skin and clothes and teeth. and that young boy's face, that's what kept me awake all night. he could not have been any older than me.

i think it was april 1st.
