When I was young I could see the ways
My elders killed themselves
I realized and wondered why
Now some twelve years later
I can see it happening in a progressive state
I witness the ritual, and now I know why
I see my friends,
My family,
Myself.
Killing ourselves.
Now, as I am old, I've forgotten my battle plan
The strategy developed as a child
To escape my inevetable end.
I write about it..
