Bidders Triers Failures Mockers
i can imagine failed suicide bids are a real kick in the teeth
not cry outs but actual die outs
waking up in the hospital bed
for a matter of hours/days you may feel some relief
or even joy at the escape from the escape
surely though the compound of guilt, fear and regret
will soon overpower those wilting rays of survival instinct
failure on the grandest level possible
maybe a certain percentage will grasp this unwanted at first
second chance
Read the rest of the poem Show less
the majority will double the dose and add a little
vodka to the mix
and fail again
not worth thinking about
also imagine the part timers
whom a need for attention of any kind will suffice
bless them
by cursed luck go and slit the wrong/right vein
and the blasted battery goes at the wrong/right time
or that vitalist of organs has cheek to say
fuck this malarkey
what a waste
how sad
No cursed 4AM Dog walkers

on AD (after demolition humiliation capitulation etc...) from @anonymous1
"I just commented on another poem of yours. This one seems even more prophetic. In fact, this may be the one I was thinking of when I was commenting on the other poem. You see, I had read them both a number of times. Was…" -

on Once upon a Liberal from @anonymous1
"This makes me want to know more about you...i think. At the very least, I'd like to know what is the motivation behind this piece. It reads like a prophecy and I picture this poem being performed. Lisa" - June 2010

AD (after demolition humiliation capitulation etc...)
"Little did I know this satirical fantasy of terror and destruction on the streets of England with the Royals and peoples friend Davey C legging it to Germany would become reality in less than a week. Apologies to Capellos family, his suicide was actually in Bleomfontain not Cape Town. Cyanide capsules and razor blades at the ready......" -
