Leaving

i'd like to forget this town
drink like Poe and drown-
out it's annoying citizens

tired of walking through hell, defending
like Dante, ever descending,
observing my mistakes in human form

i'd rather not die in the hands of men
like Frost, being stuck within
white walls hoping for some escape

i'm hoping for some escape
