"i don't want to die,"
      she said,
but is that what she felt?
      to do or die
to die or do
what's left for her
      is barely clear

do i want to die?
      do i want to die?
            do i want to die?

the drugs are weak
      the knife is dull
            no straight razors anywhere
                  no rope
                        no gun
                              no broken source of gas

but do i want to die?

      (and when?)
