Options.

iv. An unfamiliar place
With unfamiliar people,
Doing an unfamiliar thing.

I inch myself forward,
Past the line that says
“Do not pass this line,
For your own safety.”
I glance down the tunnel
And see the lights
Heading towards us all
With high speed.
If I timed it right,
I could jump.
But what would come first,
Electrocution
Or being hit?

And how many of these strangers’ minds
Would my suicide haunt?
