Swallow razors
if you must
for they taste sharp
like steel blue cheese
leaving the rarest
aftertaste of
a copper tang
upon your tongue.
Do not weep
when you vomit blood
it is all part
of the venue
on the menu of death
self-inflicted.
~
Climb to the top of
twenty stories
suck the sweet air
and then just
savor life
a few moments more
before you depart
then listen to
each story
spun as they go
whispering...
whistling
past your ear
as you fall to
deepest sleep
and close the
final chapter
of you
with a vicious slam.
It will only hurt
with humongous agony
when you stop!!!!
~
But be sure
when you sit down
for your last supper
at the banquet
known as Death
that you bring
with you an
appetite voracious
in its urgings
make certain
that you finish
all that's served
at your demise
~
Far too many
planned
last suppers
only to be
caught with the courses
left before them
incomplete
Now they wallow
in asylum's
eating foods of
lesser grades
and wishing they had
cleaned their plate
when death presented
its last fare.............................!!!!!!!
