Carter stands at a distance
Click drops, films roll
Pipe running taped to the driver's side window
"I'm really, really sorry
The pain of life overrides the joy
to the point that joy does not exist
depressed...without phone...money for rent...money for child support
money for debts...money...
I am haunted by vivid memories
of killing corpses and anger and pain
of starving or wounded children
of trigger-happy madmen
often police
of killer executioners
I have gone to join Ken
If I am that lucky"
Boy, girl crawls, survives
Bird flies away
Kevin dies
Boy survives, Kevin dies, Kevin dies
Bird will fly, boy survives, Kevin dies
