Prologue
Twas the Night Before Easter
I trudged aimlessly Through The Dark
Empty streets of Washington by the memory of my son Ali
The only way to kill a zombie
It was 3 a.m.
Storms punished the city I’ve been walking like that for hours by then
But didn’t feel hungry or thirsty or tired and anyway
When lightning bolt
Not even the pouring rain could slow me
Every inch of my body because of what have been done to my family
I kept seeing
Damon Johnny and Nana mama in my mind whatever
Ignited inside me all over again
An anchor
Is this I kept asking myself
Everything
He gutted me
And left a man
As I walked I kept hoping mulch or some anonymous
Blow my head off with a shotgun or crushing with an axe
There was nothing I wanted more than that

Sony magnetic signs have been ordered online through FedEx office
So had the phony badge on his left shirt pocket
