Oh My God

Driving down the road, in a sea of snow, barely able to see. Each flake passing by like a tiny universe, pays no heed to me. The halo headlights of an on coming car , half a mile away. The soporiferous snow, lulled me back to the events of the day. Early in the morning, their loud yelps, without any warning : My dogs saw a turkey, their leashes, torn from my hand. The sun was nowhere to be found, starring at shadows on the ground. I followed the turkey, the dogs, by their sound ; Bright, White, Light. Oh MY GOD : I'm in the wrong lane, I hope it is quick , I don't like pain. Like sonic Thunder : Metal smashing Metal : My life went through my Brain. The hood catapulted into the windshield, hurling shard glass into My Breast. OH MY GOD : LENORE I'm coming HOME; MY SOUL can finally REST. Then I Awoke
