The Accident



Lying down with deep thoughts of past
In remembrance of rains that ran down so fast
Roars so loud not light to the ears
The pain of sound had severed my ears
A form of gasoline-gulpers a group so numerous
Foreboding a darkness, diagnosed by science-healer
Spinning on hands, the hope of life gone
Ahead I am dreaming, dawning back in love
My light-seekers go further, into futures of mystery
My Cartwheels so free, frolic back into life
Joy and splendor, sweeps away my sorrows
Until reality comes to carry off my hope
