I need some attention,
I need some attention.
Look at I else I cry
I have friends I swear.
When I say I'll die
they all care.
It's a lie.
**** the intention.
I need the attention.
Lest I mistake
Friendship for pity
the demons I create
aren't harsh or gritty.
No! They're all fake.
One wolf
Two wolf
Three wolf
No wolf
You got me, you got me.
Hopefully you're happy.

Yiska slits
her thin wrist
-broken glass

in a bin
in the ward
what a find-

the blood comes
plentiful
beautiful

she reckons
sitting back
in the bath

of water
motherly
and warming

reddening
but a nurse
on duty

looking to
tell Yiska
the doctor

wanted her
finds her there
in the bath

drifting off
and blood soaked
EMERGECY

SUICIDE
the nurse yells
up the ward

-locked up ward
those who are
mentally

unstable
are caged here-
I am in

the main lounge
looking out
the window

snows falling
some robin
perches there

on a branch
Yiska said
earlier

she'd make it
out of here
one way or

the other
there's a rush
of nurses

and a quack
follows up
half way through

-I'm guessing-
his breakfast
there's egg yoke

at the side
of his mouth
poor Yiska

so depressed
no way out
she told me

but I guess
watching the
brave robin

sitting there
that there is
if you look

really hard
to get out
out somewhere.

somewhere
on unending
back roads of Nebraska
I left behind the ghost of my
cancer
