night<\/p>\n<p>Really<\/p>\n<p>Yes<\/p>\n<p>What do you pray for<\/p>\n<p>The usual things<\/p>\n<p>It was more about my Daddy recently<\/p>\n<p>And my prayers are being slowly answered<\/p>\n<p>He is walking slowly now<\/p>\n<p>Baby steps<\/p>\n<p>Yes baby steps<\/p>\n<p>In some ways you make me laugh Anna<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for sharing that<\/p>\n<p>Sorry I did not mean it that way<\/p>\n<p>I am so sorry Anna I am so clumsy but you confuse me sometimes<\/p>\n<p>You are so tender and generous and loving but you are so angry<\/p>\n<p>I feel that you are colder than Penelope<\/p>\n<p>It would not take much for you hurt someone badly<\/p>\n<p>I am aware of that<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to know something that I have never shared with anybody<\/p>\n<p>Not even Outlaw<\/p>\n<p>Fuck Outlaw<\/p>\n<p>It happened over ten years ago when I was arrested at a demo<\/p>\n<p>What did you do<\/p>\n<p>I punched a policewoman on the nose<\/p>\n<p>Why<\/p>\n<p>Because she hurt me<\/p>\n<p>Were you prosecuted<\/p>\n<p>Very much<\/p>\n<p>What happened<\/p>\n<p>I was asked why I did it<\/p>\n<p>What did you say<\/p>\n<p>I said that I punched her because she not beautiful<\/p>\n<p>If I was to be arrested I wanted to be arrested by a beautiful policewoman<\/p>\n<p>I bet that went down well<\/p>\n<p>It did<\/p>\n<p>What did they do<\/p>\n<p>They kept me in the slammer for hours on end<\/p>\n<p>I was on at the time and the cop supervising the cells kept watching me<\/p>\n<p>What a cunt<\/p>\n<p>Did you report him<\/p>\n<p>No<\/p>\n<p>Why<\/p>\n<p>I just left my bloody rags on the floor of the cell<\/p>\n<p>He told me to pick them up and you can guess what I told him to do<\/p>\n<p>It was only later when I was being interviewed by a human policewoman that I realised that I was being profiled<\/p>\n<p>Really<\/p>\n<p>She was writing carelessly on a pad and did not realise that I could read upside down<\/p>\n<p>What did she write<\/p>\n<p>The usual shit<\/p>\n<p>But then I saw something that interested me and I challenged her<\/p>\n<p>What did she write<\/p>\n<p>That I had psychopathic tendencies<\/p>\n<p>WHAT<\/p>\n<p>Did you rip her apart<\/p>\n<p>No I agreed with her<\/p>\n<p>Really why<\/p>\n<p>Because I had realised from my youngest days that I had a temper<\/p>\n<p>When I got into fights at school I wanted to rip my enemy apart<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to kill them<\/p>\n<p>There was a fat girl called Alice Munro who was jealous of my beauty so she bullied me until one day I slammed a brick into her face and kicked her down a set of stairs<\/p>\n<p>What happened to you<\/p>\n<p>They made me a head girl<\/p>\n<p>Seriously<\/p>\n<p>The cops were called<\/p>\n<p>I was expelled from the school<\/p>\n<p>And then<\/p>\n<p>Nothing<\/p>\n<p>Daddy pulled a few strings and made me apologise to the fat bitch<\/p>\n<p>Did you<\/p>\n<p>Yes<\/p>\n<p>Did you like doing it<\/p>\n<p>Very much<\/p>\n<p>Why<\/p>\n<p>Because I wore my prettiest dress and made myself look so beautiful<\/p>\n<p>I was really stunning<\/p>\n<p>When she came to the door with her nose in plaster I almost laughed<\/p>\n<p>She was so gross and ugly and I was so beautiful<\/p>\n<p>So fucking beautiful<\/p>\n<p>Did you apologise<\/p>\n<p>Through gritted teeth yes<\/p>\n<p>Was that the end of the problem<\/p>\n<p>More or less<\/p>\n<p>So it did not end there<\/p>\n<p>Were you prosecuted<\/p>\n<p>No I was too young<\/p>\n<p>I was warned by the cops<\/p>\n<p>Did you look pretty<\/p>\n<p>No Daddy said that I should be plainly dressed<\/p>\n<p>And it worked<\/p>\n<p>But that was not the end of it as I felt violated<\/p>\n<p>Anna what did you do<\/p>\n<p>I waited three months or so and then made my move<\/p>\n<p>What did you do<\/p>\n<p>I shit in their flower beds or rather I shit into their wonderful flowerbeds<\/p>\n<p>Why the flowerbeds<\/p>\n<p>Because her father loved his garden<\/p>\n<p>Were you caught<\/p>\n<p>No I was suspected but I had told mummy that I had a guts ache and went to bed that evening<\/p>\n<p>I waited to the coast was clear and made my move<\/p>\n<p>My alibi was watertight and it was soon blamed on the local pikeys<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anna what happened to you when you punched the policewoman<\/p>\n<p>Not much even though I expected to go to prison<\/p>\n<p>It turned out that the local television station had been filming the demo and it was evident that the cops were using rough house tactics<\/p>\n<p>Were you filmed<\/p>\n<p>No but my brief made mincemeat of the prosecution as they could not provide any evidence to prove it was actually me who broke the cows nose<\/p>\n<p>Even though you mentioned it at the cop shop<\/p>\n<p>I said I was joking and tried to come across as a shallow upper class bitch<\/p>\n<p>Which although undesirable is not a crime<\/p>\n<p>The case did not even make it out of the magistrates court<\/p>\n<p>It seemed someone had pulled strings once more<\/p>\n<p>You father<\/p>\n<p>Right first time<\/p>\n<p>Do you think that you have psychopathic tendencies Anna<\/p>\n<p>Possibly<\/p>\n<p>I have not really thought about it<\/p>\n<p>I have anger issues yes but whether the former is true is open to debate<\/p>\n<p>Do you know something I feel better after chatting to you<\/p>\n<p>I feel less angry<\/p>\n<p>I still feel sad but I have rested my ghosts<\/p>\n<p>Coffee<\/p>\n<p>Yes<\/p>\n<p>And then you can tell me one of your fun facts<\/p>\n<p>Okay<\/p>\n<p>The French word Deux can have two meanings in English<\/p>\n<p>Those being<\/p>\n<p>Obviously <em>two<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But it can also mean <em>of

involved<\/p>\n<p>Possibly<\/p>\n<p>One day she will bite off more than she can chew<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anna it seems that the assassin was shot dead by the security forces<\/p>\n<p>They say it
