Poem -

Attempted Suicide..........

He stumbles into the kitchen after a night of ceaseless debauchery
He hates himself, for what he's done, and what he hasn't
He grabs the biggest kitchen knife and stabs it deep into his wrist
And holds his wrist out in front of himself and spells his name on the floor
In blood, it reads......T>>>>O>>>>>N>>>>>>>Y
He awakens to light so bright
He shields his eyes and cries
But no one hears his words
He knows that he's alive
But nothing like before
The man he was
Is gone forever
In letters
on the kitchen floor..........

Tony Taylor (Chicago)
