selfish

the sky is colored like a dead person
we're all inside
i'm upstairs
thinking about all the ways i don't want to die

i'm in the kitchen on september 21st
i've broken straight-edge september
for the first time since september 11
i'm too high
crying and screaming about troy davis

dave is agreeing with me
talking to him is comforting
he doesn't really say anything
when i compare it to september 11

there is/was a man
i read about on cnn.com
who was trying to get DNA evidence tested
from murders he says he did not commit

(his wife, i think, was assaulted,
skull crushed,
that is a way i do not want to die,
and two other persons were murdered by a human
three fatalities)

the judge refused to DNA test
he was scheduled to be executed on wednesday
but was trying desperately
to get the mazes of the law
to let him keep his human life
it's saturday now,
i haven't checked to see if he's dead yet

i did tweet about it

the sky is colored like a dead person
we're all inside
i'm upstairs
thinking about all the ways i don't want to die
