Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Clenched knuckles
On my steering wheel
A red light above me
A black pickup -
A wall before me

No injuries
But totaled
Radiator fluid spilled
But new brakes
Kept me alive

Emptying the car –
Flashbacks of a decade before.
Of a fatal accident –
Blood and brains on the seat
Powerful smells of fluids,
The lifebloods of the Accord.

Broken cassette covers
In my car
A parallel to his.
Bent plates another
Memories burnt
Into my mind.
