Empty people 

Empty heads

Empty conversations

warm empty beds

There rationality stands with a gun to his head.

he whispers something in my ear.

click.                                He is dead.

This is what he said "don't you understand my dear?"

"This is life."

"Empty..."

"dead"

I walk over to where rationality's body now lies.

his body now vacant. Empty. Dead.

I pick up the gun and put it to my head.

i say " i understand kind sir"

"this is deaths vibrant breath"
