The Underclass
On this day 11-21-24
I'm going on record to say
suicide is not an act of selfishness and cowardice
It is not an act of self-hate
but an act of pure self-love
a love so pure that it
drowns out the fathomless pain
puts an exclamation point on the end of.... hopeless.
suicide is a pearl of courage
surrounded by petals of merciful kindness
Then it's in the hands of God to put a ribbon upon the last breath
or feed it to the potter of the underclass
