Statistics and Probabilities

Statistics and Probabilities

written by: Griffin

 

suicide
what is it, really?
is it a yearning
to stop everything at once
or just a respite
to dampen the voices
until they’re only simmering?

like the quiet you get
at a park
early in the morning
with nothing but birds chirping

i don’t know
it’s quite hard to clutch at a feeling

when the claw machine of life
is rigged beyond the possibilities
of statistics and probabilities
