A Narrow Escape
Not one; Might have been ten; or even more; death-knell!
I have been prompted to pack-up with no delay;
One seemed finest of calls; to heaven or to hell!
Universe turned upside down! Cosmos had no say...!
It was a titanic car wreck over my bike,
I sped up recklessly; hit on a rocky wall;
Hit-on head! Fell as though dead! Head-heart inner-strike!
Leaving my body did soul toward heavens crawl...?
Head and body in casting like an astronaut,
I did not have guts or speech to esquire a thing;
Did God lock his gates lacking perpetual spot?
Or did he think of my extension here to swing...?
Thunder, lightning and cloud-burst on any can fall.
Death, as per her mood, spares humans or to her call...!
