I'm writing one great piece before the
real impact
sets in.
I'm telling one great tale before the
depression takes over my
being,
leaving me
entirely
immobile.

I'm sharing one opinion before I
collapse
in on myself.
I'm creating one last
failure
before I realize my
lack
of success.
I'm teaching one last lesson of
illness,
hell-bent wishes,
and nothingness.
I'm trying
one
more
time
to attempt to make
some difference.
I'm trying,
breathing,
writing
one last piece before I'm completely




consumed
