The Powder Keg Is Ready
The powder keg is ready
Explosives readily available
But he wants something more personal
So they know it is him
He needs to see their horror
Feel their terror
Enjoy it
Maybe he felt bullied at work
Maybe he is completely insane
No doubt he felt alone in this workplace
For I think if he had felt the presence of one friend
There is no way he could have killed so many co-workers
with a semi-automatic assault rifle
He would have been fearful of
killing his friend.
