7th Annual Poems About Suicide Month

[Magpie]

Seems like it would be easier to kill myself
than write a poem about suicide.
Had a blank bit of paper for a few days,
then wrote something about a bridge.
I'll continue to roll my rock up the hill
until I can come up with my suicide poem.

It should be my expert subject.

Sisyphus, Steppenwolf - anyone? Discussion?

When I was a teen I thought I was the Steppenwolf.
Now I'm middle aged I'm shit scared to read that book,
I looked for it yesterday in the 2nd hand book shop
but it wasn't there which means it's not time to read it again.
I'm scared that it might kill me or bring enlightenment.
Same thing really.
