Farewell Cruel World Poem by Jason Jackson

Farewell Cruel World, I must go on
My burden is such that I must beg your pardon
My limbs grow weary from bipolar angst
..and you carry on watching TV

I find it harder to reach a smile
I cannot find the time to beguile
my reason is turgid & hard to connect
..and you watch CSI on Channel 5

I no longer connect with political smear
I used to engage, but now no fear
I'm enraged with selfish, hypocritical smite
..and you read Hello magazine

So, that's it, I'm off to do myself in
now which method should I apply
something quick & painless perhaps
whilst you watch cat food commercials

I'm too bored tonight, it's raining as well
I'll sleep on it, tomorrow may prevail
I'm fickle & my gumption is lacking
I'm over here, If you'd like to speak to me
