They want to see the good stuff<\/p>\n
what was sourced at 3AM when moderation was low<\/p>\n
and anonymous evil was untethered<\/p>\n
WEBMs downloaded and put in a secret folder<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s how the brothers gut check the new recruits<\/p>\n
after getting them drunk and high<\/p>\n
and making them run until they puke<\/p>\n
doing other things their fathers wouldn’t even laugh at<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s this weird test of manhood<\/p>\n
watching people die<\/p>\n
their final experiences fed from my laptop<\/p>\n
to the TV by an HDMI cable<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tonight’s menu includes some favorites<\/p>\n
Hi-def ISIS executions<\/p>\n
Cartel footage set to Mexican techno<\/p>\n
Fatal accident photography<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But we start with something mild<\/p>\n
cellphone footage of a building leap<\/p>\n
the crowd below turning just as<\/p>\n
terminal velocity is suddenly stopped<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This new hopeful lets out a scream<\/p>\n
and then falls in the floor sobbing<\/p>\n
the other rushers can’t calm him<\/p>\n
and he leaves to a chorus of laughter<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He doesn’t show up ever again<\/p>\n
leaving the school the next week<\/p>\n
the lead brother is chuckling as he tells me<\/p>\n
‘That’s how his dad died.’<\/p>\n
