Decisions
You can start off with a simple shot,
Or slice open your wrist, avoiding a clot.
You allow dehydration,
Or let in starvation.
You could try drowning,
Or a classic hanging…
Electrocution is an option,
But so is ingesting a toxin.
You might ensure immolation,
To invite incineration.
Jumping from a height can be done,
But so can suffocation kill someone.
why not vehicular impact,
Death on contact.
Lay on the railway,
Leave there to decay.
A drug overdose would work nicely,
But so would self strangulation, if done precisely.
Stabbing yourself can do the job,
Though slow, you refuse to sob.
There are so many ways out there…
However it happens,
I DON’T CARE.
Whether a
Stab,
Or shoot.
A cut,
Or burn.
A drown,
Or hang,
It is always my turn.
It will happen,
You all should learn!
