Step back from that railing, throw away those pills, there's a better plan to live with life's failings.
Move to Kansas.
A slower way for a similar.
A kind of death with a different regret.
Real far from anywhere.
Not much to do when you get there.
You can join a church, their death you can share.
Mourning is a lifestyle, not much ado about nothing is a way of life.
Sure, jets fly over and dump their waste tanks. It's a blessing really, the crops do well.
Vacation now can be everywhere else.
Just plan at least a 500 mile drive to get there.
No mass transit, so you need a car to drive in circles while living there.
Saying goodbye like this is a slower way to end it all.
But, you'll probably not see much difference when you visit our empty mall.
Missing you and for family and best friend it'll be just the same.
Death and Kansas are far away and they will never see you again.
So let's go back in time, no tourist problems, not much to buy, don't need much money, lots of heat and humidity, not a lot of shade.
So move to Kansas instead.
Forget your past and when you get here.....finally death at last.
You can write your own obituary and you can read it too.
On the other hand, if it's long life you seek, well then here's the ticket. Marry a Jewish princess and move to Baldwin City Kansas. You won't live any longer but it will just seem like it.
State motto reads "Ad Astra Per Aspera" meaning to the stars through difficulties.....except for the stars part, it's all true.
"Don't mess with Kansas" you might just improve something.
And Kansas politics are great. Most of the voters long for the antebellum. The others are probably from else where.
They gather here like the trip to the mythical elephant burial ground in Africa.
Same serch ensues and nothing will be found.
Sinners are welcome as the economy is based on jailing everyone because everything you want to do is a crime there.
Death, where's your mercy?
Over 1500 miles east of L.A. bout the same from Jersey.
