I don't want to die. Okay, let me rephrase that. I mean I don't want a typical death. I want it to be unforgettable. I don't want to die any of the ways That have already been used. Car accidents. Burning. Health problems. ****** Suicide. OD And much more. You see, all these ways of death include something else: Statistics. I don't want to be a statistic when I die. I don't want the only remaining part of me To be just a single number Buried under millions more. But I don't have a say in the matter, Do I? --- JMB
