Fear Worst I Realized

More From William Manchester

A couple days before the stunts, if i'm doing something particularly dangerous, i will go over every worst-case scenario in my head, like this could happen, this could happen, this could happen, this could happen. i try to think about that to where it's ingrained in me.
Couple Thinking Worst Case Scenario
At 13 years old, i realized i could start my own band. i could write my own song, i could record my own record. i could start my own label. i could release my own record. i could book my own shows. i could write and publish my own fanzine. i could silk-screen my own t-shirt. i could do this all myself.
Song Book Writing
We’re the worst thing because for us the worst thing is the best thing. and it’s only the best thing for us if it’s the worst thing for someone else.
Worst Best Things Worst Things
If the worst thing that can happen is that nobody laughs, then i can deal with that, because the worst thing that can happen at the factory is that i could lose a limb or be crushed by a huge machine.

It was like that class at school where the teacher talks about realization, about how you could realize something big in a commonplace thing. the example he gave--and the liar said it really happened--was that once while drinking orange juice, he'd realized he would be dead someday. he wondered if we, his students, had had similar 'realizations.' is he kidding? i thought. once i cashed a paycheck and i realized it wasn't enough. once i had food poisoning, and realized i was trapped inside my body.
Teacher Liars Drinking
And often the worst thing wasn't the victims--they were dead, after all, and beyond any more pain. the worst thing was those who loved them and survived them. often the walking dead from now on, shell-shocked, hearts ruptured, stumbling through the remainder of their lives without anything left inside of them but blood and organs, impervious to pain, having learned nothing except that the worst things did, in fact, sometimes happen.
