Unconventional List
Cuts?
Deep;
but not deep enough.
Plastic bag over the head?
Breath betrayed the plan.
Middle of a frozen lake?
I prayed the ice would give;
it didn’t.
Rope around the neck?
I guess the rope also wasn’t strong enough.
Train tracks?
The train came;
but to a stop.
Pills?
I slept it off.
Substance abuse?
Ran out of money;
not reasons.
Wire and a branch?
The branch gave out forcing me to stay.
