Extinguish the candles, cut the sound,
Take a gulp of darkness and stillness,
Or find a reliable branch,
Or knock a nail deep into the sill.
Get the extra tickets
as soon as you can:
I go to a public
hanging,
I neither go as a spectator
nor a lunatic -
I indeed go to be hanged,
Without an executioner
(the executioner will be hissed off the stage)
I go to commit
suicide.
