    About this ebook

    We've all had when days everything just seems to go dreadfully wrong. What happens when you’ve had just one too many of those days? 

    Could the combination of seemingly mundane, innocuous, everyday injustices, a subverted intelligence, accumulated negative energy, knowledge of basic nuclear physics and coincidental access to a particle collider bring about the end of the world as we know it?

    Take an apocalyptic short journey to the most unexpected end of days and hopefully you’ll come away working diligently to do your part to make the world a better place. You can be a superhero. It isn’t as hard as you think.

    For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me,
    and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

    I was not in safety, neither had I rest,
    neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.

      The Education of Mrs. R.

      Sep 6, 2022

      An adolescent shriek woke her. Cockerels, she thought, cockerels, with a wry twist to the word. She lay in the dark listening. There was no use in covering her head; the screaming still came through. The soloist was suddenly submerged in the chorus.

      Apocalypse Now

      1And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

      2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

      3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

      4 And there went out another horse that was RED: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

      5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

      6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

      7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

      8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

      6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

      20 Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul;

      21 which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

      22 which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?

      23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?

      24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

      25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

      26 I was not in safety, neither had
