Short Resuscitated Poems

roadblock 
hit a brick wall
head first 
dead upon 
impact 
can not 
be resuscitated
nothing can 
be done 
all hope is 
lost 
there is no coming
back from this 
emotional crash...

However today most people own 2 cars which they can't afford

Even the largest of dewdrops will not save you now
For you are small

Even the warmest of suns will not save you now
For you are less

Even the biggest of hearts will not save you now
For yours is not beating

Maybe somewhere 
You are able to say thank you


The red-iron dirt is saying thank you.
