No Pull-Over

by Maureen Glaude

she wasn’t the type
to pull-over
to gawk at roadkill

not even when
one of the bodies
splayed out
seemed to be
her own

Detachment whisks us away from the wreckage whose very vision might destroy us. Thief or savior? I haven't decided...

Really like the strong survival spirit here. Great example of how less is more.

Short, powerful, worrying! Mmm - a new departure in your writing I think?
