Postmortem Say

 

Could say crimsoned limbs

and blood moon glass shatter, say

he was chrome smoke, the night 

diamond-flecked, say the cause

was exsanguination due to blunt

force trauma from a wreck,

say too many contributing

factors to list. Or say the truth,

which is to say: it was dark,

we never saw each other,

say by the time we did,

it was already too late,

the loss total.
