Goodbye.

They lay on display

Their torn and jumbled up mess of a human body sprawled on the rusted metal of train tracks

A brown severed arm, Their eyes dimmed

the overwhelming scent of blood mingled with car exhaust and warm summer night air

Crows, Maggots, and Flies

They have come to feast.

I wonder, would I just stay alive if hit by a train? Because of my disgustingly large body, would it prevent me from dying?

Would I have to suffer, a few more seconds, minutes

Hours?


Lying there in agonizing pain, maybe even seeing my own intestine strewn out?

Bones, white and poking through ragged flesh

God, I don't want it to hurt

Maybe I'm just a coward, but I don't want to feel anything anymore.
