How To Kill Yourself: A Step by Step Guide.

first,
find yourself some alcohol.
drink it.
release all of your worries
into the burning of your throat.
allow it to cleanse you.
become purified inside.
become nothing
inside.

forget how to love.
in fact,
forget how to do anything
that resembles being human.
remember what it means
to be space.
discover that you are
completely empty,
that your very solidity
is an illusion.
stop lying to yourself.
realize that you
are in constant motion
and will never stop.

you will never stop.

find yourself some
spiderwebs and
postcards
and know that one day
you will get lucky enough
to have someone sing
you a song.

figure out how
to light cigarettes with
your fingertips
and cry moonshine
so that you’ll
never be sober again.

remember what it’s like
to fight off the monsters
you used to see under your bed
when you were little,
goddamn,
jumping those six feet
from the light switch to the
mattress made for some
exciting kung-fu action.

now be quiet.

stop moving.

your molecules will constantly vibrate
for the rest of time,
no matter if you return to the stardust
like you were before.
you will keep moving.

so make it a move forward.

off the edge of science
and the cliff
and make it the end.
