A Risk Taken Unforgotten For The Archives

To split or not split wrists...
Seems to be such a self indulging understaking.

However...
It is the taking of risks,
And witnessing others stirred up in fits...
That eliminates the wish to end one's existence.

To privately decide to say goodbye to life...
Is so anti-climatic.
If one is seeking drama...
There is nothing like taking centerstage,
With spotlight.

And giving those in attendance,
The best mooning you can do!

With that done...
Will indeed become,
A risk taken unforgotten for the archives.
And one,
If the spotlight hits right...
Will not offend,
But achieve the attention sought!
And maybe a round of applause...
If what is seen has been deemed attractive.
