"For Donna and For Scott" For Donna and For Scott to speak the unspeakable to bear witness for the dead If I kill myself am I a murderer? Is it as bad as killing another? What of interrupted ones who never were? I have lost a half-sister and half-brother She to suicide and he to criminal neglect Is it any wonder then that I do not respect The father we three share?
