Voices In Your Head
August 15, 2014
Suicide is a crime.
What a rebel you are
destroying government property.
You have the right
to remain silent,
and silent,
you have always been.
They are going
to take you away
evidence clear,
on your skin
and in hospital bills
of countless resuscitations
so they can banish you
to a white walled prison.
There is a straight jacket
in your size.
They are coming for you
and you are going to serve
a life sentence,
and you don't want that
so you should probably just jump.
