crowd talk (the mantra of the killing mind) [audio montage]
If you listen to this all the way through, you'll find what seems to me to be the real world, where the really dangerous people don't look like me, they look and sound like Dennis Rader, the BTK killer.
When I first came to Oakville, a woman - now a friend - made the comment at an AA meeting that when she saw me she thought she'd come to get sober in the company of people who looked like serial killers. That got her a laugh, made me laugh, but mostly it made my closest friends, the Old Timers, laugh.
I'm an easy read. I wear my heart on my sleeve, I am exactly what you see. I am a product of my age and chosen lifestyle. I am a long-haired, bearded musician and drunk in a porcupine suit.
Why the sharp quills? Because every bad person I ever met looked like everybody else on the street. What you call normal is what bad people wear as a disguise.
In this audio montage, you hear male & female voices, and as the piece progresses, you'll hear the Easter Egg, the mild-mannered man who hears the Wraith in his head as David Berkowitz allegedly heard the dog. And, in the end, you'll hear The Wraith clearly outline the imagined bond between the indifferent killer and his intended victim.
With luck, at the end, you'll understand why the least useful question to ask a serial killer is "why?".
Hell is empty; all the devils are here.
