Sweep the dust up off the floor
pull all the snacks from the cupboard.
Close the closets, lock the doors
cause no one lives here anymore.

Board up the windows when you go,
lay your stuff down on the ground,
pour kerosene on all of your things
and light up the whole ******* town.

Take the pills and go to sleep,
close your eyes and let it be
as the flames come rushing in
to burn from without
like you were from within.

If they ever find your corpse
or the ashes that float away,
don’t worry about a death note
cause they don’t deserve
to read your last gasp gasoline
pink and pained poetic words.
