Analysis of The Glass bridge

Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)



I saw my love on the glass bridge.She was looking so lovely .Then i saw a large rock in the sky.It was falling and falling i ran and ran i screamed my love my love run please run! But she heard me not and this comet in the sky was falling and falling.I reached the bridge and this bolder crashed into us. We were falling and falling  and we crashed into into the ground torn and bleeding.i dragged myself to her as we were dying and held her alone as we bled out no one saw no one cared as we died the glass bridge.
