Man, 22, killed, whilst performing a random act of kindness. (Live reading)





Strangers can be funny
buggers. One minute it’s: ‘Howdy
buddy’ the next it’s: ‘give me all your money!’
Seph was not like that though, no. He was
a genuine Good Samaritan. Bald with glasses,
I guess you could say he was a nerd: a Cultist
attached to the ‘Join Me’ sect, in West Sussex.
But he was a star - especially on Fridays when
made to be good, he’d see you in a bar and tip
you a pint in. Spontaneous and generous if
you could find him. Well, I found him first.
At about 6.45 he entered the park. In the dark
he looked like an AIDS victim on a cruise, for
his life. I was pissed as a cat - and I was short
of money. He offered to drive me back home
to my mummy, the muppet. Forgive me, but
he was an awful twat. Banging on about the Bible
and all that. While he bigged up Jehovah, I sized
up his car. When he invited me to go I asked him
how far was he willing to go. When he asked me to
pull down my trousers - I battered the fucking queer
and Jesus, I thought: “Jesus!”. How people can turn.
