Reflections Of A Psychopath.

The following piece of text attempts to capture the inner workings of the psychopathic brain.

Let me begin by saying, “Do not try and understand me, as you never will.” I wear the mask of sanity, I am NORMAL. You don’t believe me, do you? Well, just think about it for a second, why would I be anything but? Do you have reason to suspect me? The answer is no. So why then scrutinize my behavior in this cell? Why keep me constrained? You cannot answer these questions can you my friend? Alas, they are not for you too answer, you are too humane to do so.

You are the only friend I have in this twisted world, NOBODY is what they seem. Only me my friend, I was honest, I was brave, and I was punished for it. No, this world is not just, it is not fair. So, I tried to rectify it, I really did. But alas, I was ravaged by all the world’s judgement. Now I am broken and jailed. You are my only friend. You are the one whom I can trust.

Tell me, what did I do that was so wrong? Was my argument baseless? A few worthless men and women needed to feel what I was saying, that’s all. I was educating them! There truly is no order in the world, no grand purpose I told them. They didn’t believe me, they were too blind to see the truth. Was I the only one who saw the glaring truth? I am not selfish, I wanted to share that revelation. So I just showed them how pointless a single flame of life can be. It’s so easily removed, so transient. Yet they denounce me, these fools. They shall never see, they shall never remove the ignorant drapes from their eyes.

Now, all I have left is the memory of the countless women who were false. Their integrity was shameful, I then exposed it. However they denounce me for that too. I tried to show them something as insipid as love was wholly untrue and grotesque. That too they could not understand! Alas I am persecuted by these uncouth fools of lesser intellect. I am tortured just as prophets were tortured in their lifetimes. Later on these beasts shall see the way I have laid forth is just.

They’ll soon realize their folly, how dare they seek to contain ME? These mere extensions of what I am; seek to regale in MY plight! I shall teach them the meaning of anger. They seek to keep ME restrained? The fools will be judged soon enough, soon enough………
