Chaos On the Causeway

A catastrophic collision
Caused by two careering cars 
Created chaos on the causeway 
Crumpling chrome and carbon parts

The chime of crunching metal
The clash of clanging swords
The scream of screeching rubber
Echoed through the mountains gorge

Two opposing forces 
Starting distance equal breadth
Sped head long into the canyon
Meeting chaos causing death
