Array ( [sid] => 46312 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Letter [time] => 2004-05-05 17:25:33 [hometext] => This is about a man who receives an April Fool's letter from his grandson, with dire consequences. [bodytext] => Tucked inside an envelope
Folded two, three times
Hiding in the corner
Like a patron in a crime,
Was a note, with every notion
That a note that size should give
Of a criminal intention
That said, "If you want to live,
You will give me all your money
Or your stock, but either way,
I WILL get what I want..."
It continued on to say....
"If you dont obey my orders,
I will shoot you with a gun.
If you dont die from the first round,
I will cock another one."
Now the reader was quite frightened,
At the words that he had read.
He had not another option,
So he killed himself instead.
But, he died without noticing
The footnote, at the end.
It very simply stated:
"April Fools! From your Favorite Grandson, Ben!" [comments] => 3 [counter] => 202 [topic] => 36 [informant] => IamChrisHuff [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )
