Poem

man in white and black jacket and pants sitting on black surface
man in white and black jacket and pants sitting on black surface

it's cold and lifeless

this land is endless

no sound to hear no sight to see

the wind alone is all that be

sun doesn’t shine rains don’t pour

gray’s all that’s left in this whore

no vulture ‘round to feed on death

sanity gone in one last breath

the dry and brittle ground

that same old crunching sound

numbing pain

life in vain

this purgatorial hell it’s been

not deserving of the worst of men

please end it now please end it now

this eternal torment with death somehow

please end it now please end it now

so loneliness is gone somehow

please end it now
