Few people realize that man has already attained immortality; it's merely been abused, forgotten, and renamed Writing. -Brian Egan

Deer Crossing - updated 10/18/17

driver, eyes
tired,
holds hands to
wheel opposing will
subverting slumber.
Spokane in five,
grandpa too, if
he's to last...
Moses Lake in three.
stop there, maybe, get some
gas--no rest--
save that for
deer crossing,
eyes awake, motion
stops
a hairs breadth from
taking life.
pulls over,
head to wheel.
doesn't make it in time.
