V. Mayakovsky,
       drew in the smoke of his cigar,
sat by the window in his room,
And pulled the trigger,
                splashing stars
around the wound...
             around the moon.

From this we need to learn that death isn't really the easy way out, play the cards through, and we will be happy in the end. Good poem.
