Dark Sentiments 2012 – Day 26: Suicide
Posted By Randy on October 26, 2012
If you’ve ever considered suicide, or ever knew someone who has done it, know that this is not to trivialize. I have a lot more to say on this subject, but this is not the day.
Suicide
By LFM
It’s said that one who kills himself
Just takes the coward’s way.
I’ll grant this Truth for those who leave
When Duty says to stay.
But if you lack dependents
Who must look to you for strength,
When all that’s good has fled your life
Why look to it for length?
Both the strong and weak will die
No matter what the cause,
And death will come no matter how,
Exclusive of Man’s laws.
So harken here ye mortal men
And bring this Truth to rest –
Speak not to me of cowardice
Until you’re put to test.
Interesting conversation we could start with this one. Could get very personal so perhaps it should be done in another manner.
Thought you might even say. "If you haven't tried it, don't knock it."
Not sure how in hell we’ll pull it off, but you know, taking you up on your crashing offer gets more attractive every day, not that it wasn’t from the get go. When the day comes, I’ll bring the whiskey.
