A Left On Red(Has Made Me Dead)
I am writing a poem sad
about an accident that I recently had
Approaching a busy intersection of town
Little did I realize the approaching fate that would soon be found
Before crossing the street I looked around at every chance to meet
Carefully tip-toeing across the road unsaid
SUDDENLY!
BAMN-SCREECH!!
a LEFT ON RED has now made me DEAD
The thoughtless teen did not turn his brow
to see his victim lying motionless somehow
There were witnesses who could confirm my tale
that I looked both ways before setting sail
and now the damage has now been done
I have died and the instigator has won
The ambulance came to collect pieces of my brain
The rest is a bloody mess and now it's starting to rain
Pardon me right as I fade out this dreary night
