.Right here, in my hand.You know.Pin.I have a small sharp friend.Oh, look at that little point gleam.It hypnotizes you, Pin does.It says look at me look long and hard and in me you will see your future.It is a very sharp future, and there is pain in it.Pin is better than God, because I can hold Pin.God frets and moans in silence, somewhere.up there, somewhere.Way above the ceiling.Damn, I didn’t know that crack was there.No wonder this bitching place leaks.Now Johnny’s an okay guy.I mean, I wouldn’t shoot him.He’s okay.The others at the shop—bam bam bam, dead in two seconds flat.I don’t like the way they clam up when I walk past, like they’ve got secrets I’m not supposed to know anything about.Like you have secrets when you work on cars all day and fix tyres and brake shoes and get that gunk under your fingernails that won’t ever wash out? Some secrets.Now Pin.Pin does have secrets.Tonight I’m going to learn them, and I’m going to share my knowledge with those people down on the corner eating their hamburgers in the safe safe world.I’ll bet that damn roof doesn’t leak I’ll make it leak I’ll put a bullet right through it so there.I’m sweating.Hot in here.Summer night, so what else is new?Pin, you’re so pretty you make me want to cry.The trick, I think, is not to blink.I’ve heard about people who did this before.They saw the inner sun, and they went out radiant.It’s always dark in here.It’s always dark in this town.I think they need a little sunlight, don’t you?Who’re you talking to, anyway? Me myself and I.Pin makes four.Hell, I could play bridge if I wanted to.Lucas liked to play bridge, liked to cheat and call you names and what else did you have to do in that place anyway? Oh, those white white walls.I think white is Satan’s colour, because it has no face.I saw that Baptist preacher on tv and he had on a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up.He said come down the aisle come on come on while you can and I’ll show you the door to Heaven.It’s a big white door, he said.And he smiled when he said it and the way he smiled oh I knew I just knew he was really saying you’re watching me aren’t you, Joey? He was really saying, Joey you know all about big white doors don’t you, and how when they swing shut you hear the latch fall and the key rattle and that big white door won’t open again until somebody comes and opens it.There was always a long time between the closing and the opening.I’ve always wanted to be a star.Like on tv or movies, somebody important with a lot of people nodding around you and saying you make a lot of sense.People like that always look like they know where they’re going and they’re always in a hurry to get there.Well, I know where I’m going now.Right down to the corner, where the golden arches are.Look out my window, I can see it.There goes a car turning in.Going to be full up on a Saturday night.Full up.My Winchester has a seven-shot magazine.Checkered American walnut.Satin finish.Rubber buttplate.It weighs seven pounds, a good weight.I have more bullets, too.Full up on a Saturday night.Date night, oh yes I hope she’s there that girl you know the one she drives a blue Camaro and she has long blond hair and eyes like diamonds.Diamonds are hard, but you hit one with a bullet and it’s not so hard anymore.Pin, we won’t think about her will we? Nope! If she’s there it’s Fate.Maybe I won’t shoot her, and she’ll see I’m a nice guy.Hold Pin close.Closer.Closer still.Up against the right eye.I’ve thought a long time about this.It was a tough decision.Left or right? I’m right-handed, so it makes sense to use my right eye.I can already see the sun sparkle on the end of Pin, like a promise.Oh, what I could do with a machine-gun.Eliot Ness, Untouchables, tommygun type thing.I sure could send a lot of people behind that big white door, couldn’t I? See, the funny thing, I mean really funny thing is that everybody wants to go to Heaven but everybody’s scared to die.That’s what I’m going to say when the lights come on and that news guy sticks a microphone in my face.I need to shave first.I need to wear a tie.No, they won’t know me with a tie on.I need to wear my grey uniform grey now there’s a man’s colour.Pick you up good on tv in grey.Speak to me, Pin.Say it won’t hurt.Oh, you lying little bitch.It has to be in the centre.In that black part.It has to go in deep.Real deep, and you have to keep pushing it in until you see the inner sun.You know, I’ll bet that part’s dead anyway.I’ll bet you can’t even feel any pain in the black part.Just push it in and keep pushing, and you’ll see that sunburst and then you can go down and have a hamburger when it’s all said and done.Sweating.Hot night.That fan’s not worth a damn it just makes a racket.Are you ready?Closer, Pin.Closer.I never knew the point could look so big.Closer.Almost touching.Don’t blink! Cowards blink nobody can ever say Joey Shatterly’s a coward no sir!Wait.Wait.I think I need a mirror for this.I smell under my arms.Ban Roll-On
