WRITING OBSTACLE
Craft a monologue from a serial killer rationalizing their compulsion to murder.
Universe
Life is nothing. Less, even. Life is a negative number. Life is the space where nonexistence falters. But all things pass. Life is a grain of sand in the eye of the world. An irritant. A disruption that will not meaningfully last.
And so, at my core, I am a guide. I have been mandated to return you to the beginning, not of life, but of nothing. The universe has chosen lifelessness, yet you seek to defy the very thing you stole existence from.
Strange, I think. That the death of the world by humans is a convenience, while the death of humans by the world is a tragedy.
You fear a fair fight.
I have come to make you afraid.
YES. Strike fear into their silly lunch breaks as the light leaves their eyes over their stupid uncooked savoury selections
I really like how you crafted this! “That the death of the world by humans is a convenience, while the death of humans by the world is a tragedy” is such a powerful line.
This was really well written. It’s done in a way where you can almost empathise with the idea that we are all just fighting the inevitable
Agreed with this! That line is so powerful and tragic. Well done 👏
