Excuse |
---|
What pathetic excuse for a man
is he who hasn't the will to live
preferring the fog of conjectures and theory
to the sublime in the moment
Let him take his life I say!
It's worthless anyway
The world won't miss him
nor will I
But alas! It's not easy!
Take blade or rope
and do the deed
Or face the heights
and take a leap
The heart pounds
romantic notions
vanish quickly
Conviction
and clarity of mind
rare commodities
at such times
and with such peoples
But, oh what pity!
that pills and pistol
so abundant with us
make easy the coward's path
No judgement
No reality
Just confusion
and a tragic end
