The Wolves Hymn
I wallow in my own misery.
The taste of defeat is bitter sweet.
I drew the wrong card,
the wrong hand,
the wrong deck.
I don't know what is who,
who is what,
where is when,
when is where.
I know absolutely nothing.
The wolves howl tonight,
a constant, soothing hymn.
If I were to die tonight,
I would be happy where I am.
Because the barrel of the gun,
which rests in my mouth,
is cool enough to numb my pain,
and powerful...
Powerful enough to end this game.
