Surely

Surely! I felt like exploding. The back of my eyes were burning. What had happened here? There must have been times when I felt more than this. There had to be. Surely. It was Tuesday afternoon, around 12.20pm, that I realised what had to be done. Someone had to pay! I have lived, up until now, a privileged life. One really of no hard labour, unlike many of those around me. I suppose I felt superior to some people in many ways. Should I have thoughts like this as a member of the human race? There you go you see, human race, race, the word that we have put into who we are, its a race, we are racing, racing each other. Where will it be the race, who is in the, race, yes indeed! Mumblings of a mad man corrode the in workings to such a degree that there seems no way out! Surely we had felt more than this? Surely! Scott. T . Williams.
