This is a freewrite session for today Jan. 5th 2022. You can check out the freewrite post here by Marianne West: Dirt On Face
The Last Man Standing?
It seems like forever since the bombs fell and the sky turned red, and I haven't seen anyone in 376 days.
I have begun to talk to myself hoping that I don't go nuts. This really sucks ass.
Yeah I can say that now, along with a whole bunch of other words too, because it doesn't matter anymore.
I can barely find food, and my father never taught me how to hunt for food, because he didn't know how to hunt. He and my Mother are now gone along with everyone else and it's just me... myself and I.
It's time to talk to myself again...
"Hi, how are ya doing? My name is Jack and I am twelve." I say with a big smile on my face.
"Yeah I know that dumbass!" I say, using one of my best scary faces to warn off any dangerous animals.
"Just seeing if you were paying attention... sheez. You can be a real pain sometimes!"
"Yes I can, thank you." ;)
Yeah I think I am going crazy at the end of the world. Or maybe it's just because I am very hungry! There is hardly anything to eat. After everyone cleared out all the stores, the shelves are a reminder of the good old days. Days where there was food... and people to talk to. Let's not forget having clean clothes and a hot bath or shower!
I am so tired of being filthy and having dirt on my face.
"You might as well get over it already!" I tell myself yet again for the 367th time.
I never thought I would be the last man standing. Might as well call myself a man. No one else is gonna do that anytime soon.
Everyone is gone.
That's it for the freewrite. Hope you like the read. Have an awesome day... Peace!

Being the last person on earth. That seems so scary but our protagonist seems to handle it better than most people would.
