the term suicide kings
"The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity." (Yeats, The Second Coming)
I think they lack conviction because they understand the weight of words
and hold their tongues instead of hurting people carelessly
the ones that speak the loudest are full of the audacity that comes from affluent self-forgiveness
the ones that know when to speak wisdom (when it will be heard) are most often silent
but a "suicide king" has no "future" waiting; there is no reason Not to be humble, and no reason Not to be audacious.
if you can't look at yourself upon your own time of self-killing with full measure in the mirror, understanding what you are and why you will die and how and why, you are not a suicide king. just a suicide
the once and future king is a suicide king.
