8th Annual Poems About Suicide Month

[busker]

Suicide is seen
as a shite thing to do
particularly if you’re 19
but
if you’re wearing fatigues
and sport a military cut
then we’re at ease
because it is the right thing to do.

So don’t kill yourself because you’re unhappy,
because it is a crappy
cause: unsupported mental health issue.
But die for the nation, make proud your pappy,
anything else is a trite thing to do.
