The Car Crash Suicides by Sarnia de la Maré FRSA
In the shadows of
Night they rise
From the realm
Of life's demise.
Speeding cars
On weathered roads
The living dead
With nowhere to go
Headlights collide
Metals screech
A motorway pile up
More bodies to eat
This crash a collision
Of worlds entwined
Metal on metal
fate maligned
In the suicide's wake
The undead crawl
Twisted limbs
Eyes, blood pools
From the wretched spoils,
they stagger free,
Flacid cocked ghouls
With a ravenous glee.
Blood-streaked motorways
A canvas of dread
The car crash echoes
The cries of the dead.
The fragments of life
The broken heads
A ballet grotesque
In the pale moonlight
As the living give up
The will to fight
