Take off your noose-- more colorful ways to die.
It must be spangled, making you notorious,
a suicide that's easy on the eye.
You once chose razor-- that one didn't fly--
blood reversed and clotted. You were furious.
Unknot the noose for colorful ways to die.
They say to live (oh, do you even try?),
unaware what brought it on, incurious.
Not seeing the cause is easy on their eye.
Something pushed you past all stimuli,
past bullied years till you were caged, delirious,
so dig for level-headed ways to die
or dream your expiration in the sky,
Vesuvian bright, no standard goriness.
One's death is easy to one's dreaming eye,
but ask yourself the simple question: why?
Go out with bang and rainbow if that's glorious--
but look for colorful reasons not to die,
a life cut short uneasy on the eye.
