Statistics Say That...

It's during this time of year
that the suicide rate is high,

and I'm sitting on the toilet
a .35 in my hand with the
ceiling fan on high in the middle of
summer.

Wishing I was a statistic,
wishing I had the guts and
an excuse to be a statistic,

but I don't.

I never had the guts;
and unless you think running out
of toilet paper paper is a good excuse
then I'll be wiping my ass
with my .35.
