The Magazine of Saskatchewan High School Writing Rebecca Thera Bombs Chase Me to My Grave windScript Poisoned ground smeared on my skin. Mud thick with this murderer’s sin. I often imagine my clever demise. Sinister, romantic and filled with lies. Red roses lined up around my pine box. A fateful battle with deadly small pox. A strong hand on my delicate white face. Teary mourners layered in gentle black lace. There’s no one here to cry over me now, as blood seeps slowly over my brow. I shift my head to glance at my arm. I gag and retch back, dizzy with alarm. I pray to be taken from this earth. My perfect home is Satan’s hearth. Whose body is this? Torn and mangled, it can’t be my limbs, at these strange angles. A million others are dead at my side. Numbness hits me with a dysphoric tide. Darkness encloses me in his embrace. I leave the charred remains of this place. 14 volume 24

The iPod Generation<br />
15<br />
I don’t want to know<br />
I’ve got my own problems to deal with<br />
I can’t take care of the world<br />
I can’t take care of them<br />
I need to make sure<br />
My iPod has the right songs<br />
That the logo on my shoe is visible<br />
That my hair is not emo<br />
And that I don’t look like a fag<br />
Where did my shirt come from?<br />
I got it from The Gap<br />
It’s a bit too tight<br />
But it says The Gap<br />
Oh, where was it made?<br />
I don’t know<br />
I can’t pronounce it<br />
What are we having for dinner?<br />
Shall it be baked Alaska?<br />
Or chicken cordon bleu?<br />
Tommy, eat your vegetables<br />
A starving child in Africa could live off of your supper<br />
For three days<br />
And yes, take some brown beans for the food drive<br />
I’m not giving them tomato soup<br />
I like tomato soup<br />
