end game strategy

you walk onto this crowded bus
of lovers 
with your final solution 
taped to your ethereal body
like dozens of sticks of dynamite
more than enough to take all of us out
as if your final solution 
would dissipate the pain
of the survivors
should any of us survive the
initial blast
please shoot me first
between the eyes of my heart
yes do it now
so I don't have to know what is coming
