Education for Leisure - Carol Ann Duffy
"Today I am going to kill something. Anything.
I have had enough of being ignored and today
I am going to play God. It is an ordinary day,
a sort of grey with boredom stirring in the streets."

I am telling you, that boy is... Wrong! Something is wrong in his head! There was a muffled scraping noise as someone pushed a chair back, and dull footsteps as they paced irritably. "Last nights events were the last straw."

I idly played with the kitchen knife that I had resting between my fingers, recalling what I had done with it the night before. The hound had lasted a long time before bleeding out. I grinned at the memory the red and white, howls of the still living beast and the screams of the maid that disturbed my wonderful work.

The voice continued on the other side of the oak doors. "We need to get him help before something dire happens." I grinned to myself. Something dire was about to happen, something genius they just didn't appreciate my talent. And that had been Jones, the bigoted fool father employed as a lawyer.

"The staff are talking. Soon there'll be questions asked and fingers pointed. Attention we can't afford at this stage of the venture." There was a faint murmur of agreement from the other listeners. I supposed my father was among them, the gutless wretch that he was. I honestly dont know where my talent manifested from it obviously wasnt him.

I tucked the blade into a trouser pocket and wandered down the thickly carpeted hallway, content to let conspiracies fly amongst the Drawing Room Plotters. I idly cast my eyes over the pompous oil paintings that ordained the panelled walls and wondered which of my ancestors I could thank for my unique mind. Maybe none; perhaps I was an anomaly, a bright spark of triumph contrasting against the backwater Neanderthals of my familys past?
