“RésuméRazors pain you,Rivers are damp,Acids stain you,And drugs cause cramp.Guns aren't lawful,Nooses give,Gas smells awful.You might as well live.” - Dorothy Parker

Decryption of quote

Life can be filled with challenges and pain, like razors cutting into your soul. The sharp edges of disappointment and failure can leave lasting scars on your spirit. Rivers may be damp, but they can also represent the tears shed in times of sorrow. The weight of sadness can feel like a heavy current pulling you under.

Acids can stain you, leaving marks that are difficult to erase. The harsh words and actions of others can leave a lasting impact on your self-esteem. Drugs may offer temporary relief, but they can also bring their own set of problems and cramps. Escaping reality through substances is not a sustainable solution.

Guns may seem like a source of power, but they are not a lawful or lasting solution to problems. Violence only begets more violence and pain. Nooses may seem like a way out, but they only lead to more suffering and despair. Suicide is not the answer to life's struggles.

The smell of gas may be awful, but it is a reminder of the toxicity that can permeate our lives. Negative influences and environments can poison our minds and hearts. Despite all these challenges and temptations, it is important to remember that life is worth living. You might as well embrace the beauty and possibilities that each day brings.
