Scribble Me Words

I need to rid myself of you, To stop the pulse of you in my veins— Before it settles too deeply, Before it stains my soul. Your presence lingers, Tightening in my throat, A quiet pressure I can’t shake, Pulling at the quiet parts of me. I must let you go— You, whose gaze never finds mine, Whose words fall distant, A spell I can’t break. I need to unlove you, This love that winds through my chest, Familiar, yet foreign— I don’t want it, But here it stays, uninvited. I cannot be bound to you, But still, I am.

There will be peace, when humanity ceases to exist.  And the earth is engulfed in silence.  There will be peace, when the voices grow quiet,  And the last flames slowly die out.  When the screams of anguish can no longer be heard, When innocents perish along with the wicked.  When the stench rises, rotting corpses and bones, There will be peace. There will be peace, when our goal is achieved,  Of killing our kind, and everything around us,  When the last man has driven his poisonous stake into his own heart, Mankind will finally transcend into oblivion.  So, fight on, judge, abuse, misuse, disfigure, hurt, kill, Bomb, mutilate, hate, ignore,  The echoing cries that pierce the sinister days and nights, Destroy these hallowed grounds you're on, For finally, there will be PEACE.

Having first covered McCandless' story in a 9000-word essay for the Outside magazine, Krakauer decided that McCandless' story deserved an expansion, the decision reinforced by the similarities Krakauer saw between himself and McCandless.  In May 1990, after giving his savings of $25,000 to charity, abandoning his car, and burning all the money in his wallet, Christopher McCandless, all of 22 years, followed the path his feet, mind, and heart, led him on. His family would never see nor hear from him again, until learning of his emaciated corpse being found in April 1992, in the Alaskan wilderness.  Taken in and inspired by the works of writers like Thoreau, Tolstoy, and Jack London...
