Too Late

Too Late

A Poem by W. J. Howard
"

Inspired by a stupid driver.

"
The blood and decapitation illustrate my regret
For the scurry and mindless course of events
 
After rounding the corner to a tumble and a smash
My head sliced off as I propelled through the glass
 
Not a day meant to be if I had been open to foresee
A three inch line of vision would result in casualty
 
Now I hover above landscape reeling over the scene
Of my lifeless decapitated body and head resting by a tree

This is so deep and thoughtful!
Loved the closing lines the most, they concluded the entire poem so beautifully

This is very gruesome and gory but I love the rhyme, and it's very thought provoking.
