may I be mown down at dawn
by a bright red sports car
on my way home
from an allnight party

Or when I'm 91
with silver hair
and sitting in a barber's chair
may rival gangsters
with hamfisted tommyguns
burst in and give me a short back and insides

Or when I'm 104
and banned from the Cavern
may my mistress
catching me in bed with her daughter
and fearing for her son
cut me up into little pieces
and throw away every piece but one

Let me die a young man's death
not a free from sin tiptoe in
candle wax and waning death
not a curtains drawn by angels borne
'what a nice way to go' death

I want my last words to be "I'm cumming" but I hope I won't be alone.

I guess it would be your word against hers - except you forgot one thing.

*dramatic pause, suspenseful music*

And that one thing would be a little matter of...[spoiler]

photographic evidence!

Japanese death haiku, usually written just before committing ritual suicide.

quote:

---

Arimaru

Running shallow Kawa no se ni
with a year's end sound: shiwasu no oto no
river rapids. nagarekeri

Asei

Flowers of the grass: Nora ni saku
scarcely shown, and withered na wa kore made zo
name and all. kusa no hana

Atsujin

Earth and metal... Tsuchi kane ya
although my breathing ceases iki wa taete mo
time and tide go on. tsukihi ari

Baiko

Plum petals falling Chiru ume ni
I look up...the sky, miaguru sora no
a clear crisp moon. tsuki kiyoshi

Baisei

Island of Eternity: Horai ya
a turtle dries its shell out kame mo ko hosu
in the rays of a new sun. hatsu-hinata

Banzan

Farewell... Mame de iyo
I pass as all things do mi wa narawashi no
dew on the grass. kusa no tsuyu

Basho

On a journey, ill: Tabi ni yande
my dream goes wandering yume wa kareno o
over withered fields. kakemeguru

Bokusui

A parting word? Jisei nado
The melting snow zansetsu ni ka mo
is odorless. nakarikeri

Chiboku

The running stream Yuku mizu to

underfoot. ishi kawa ya

Chikuro

Butterflies in flight: Cho tobu ya
the journey's end... miateshi tabi wa
Suma Akashi Suma Akashi

Chirin

In earth and sky Ametsuchi ni
no grain of dust... chiri naki yuki no
snow on the foothills. fumoto kana

Chogo

I long for people... Hito koishi
then again I loathe them: hito mutsukashishi
end of autumn. aki no kure

Choko

This final scene I'll not see Sue ikki
to the end...my dream mi hatenu yume no
is fraying. hotsure kana

Dohaku

Cargoless, Tsumimono ya
bound heavenward, nakute jodo e
ship of the moon tsuki no fune

Enryo

Autumn waters Yoizame no
of this world wake me kore ya konoyo no
from my drunkenness. aki no mizu

Fufu

My companion in the skies Tsure mo ari
of death, imawa no sora no
a cuckoo. hototogisu

Fukyu

A bright and pleasant Kokochiyoshi
autumn day to make aki no hiyori o
death's journey. shide no tabi

Fuso

Upon the lotus flower Asatsuyu no
morning dew is usura kiekeri
thinning out. hasu no hana

Gansan

Blow if you will, Fukaba fuke
fall wind...the flowers hana wa sunda zo

Ginka

I leap from depths Shakusen no
of debt into the skies: fuchi kara tenjo

Gokei

Fields dying off: Kiete yuku
the underside of grasses frozen no mo uragare no
hour of my death. hotoke kana

I wouldn't use that for a suicide note. Maybe it's a cultural thing.

...that reminds me...

"i got something to say. it's better to burn out than to fade away." (name that film) (easy one)

all wondeful but, once the flesh weakens, for most people, didn't Bukowski get closer?

quote:

---

it's funny, isn't it? (poem #6)

when we were kids
laying around the lawn
on our
bellies

we often talked
about
how
we'd like to
die

and
we all
agreed on the
same
thing:

we'd all
like to die
fucking

(although
none of us
had
done any
fucking)

and now
that
we are hardly
kids
any longer

we think more
about
how
not to
die

and
although
we're
ready

most of
us
would
prefer to die
alone

under the
sheets

now
that

most of
us

have fucked
our lives
away.
