highway survivor
there are no lawyers here
so there is no one
to call or point fingers at
I’m just sitting here on the
highway’s shoulder
figuring out my next move
I see everything at once
and without even trying
I’m getting quite used to it
the wreck across the way
is mine but it’s been
five or ten or fifty years ago
sure seems like yesterday
I keep thinking maybe one day
I might branch out
and try my hand at haunting
august two thousand thirteen

Yeeek – the hairs on the back of my neck just twitched! A very unexpected ending.
very cool – thanks Archie 😀
haunting is overrated…wring every last drop you can out of this life 🙂
Thanks Melanie 😀 And I will
what a fun spooky scene – great last lines! K
So nice to see you enjoyed this one, K

Superb, his ghost tore right through me – really liked it…shiver.
thanks so much – glad you enjoyed this one
The first line yanked me in strongly.
I love ghosts.
I love that you get the sense of the ghost being untethered, considering their next move but knowing they are looking at the past…
So glad you like this one, Evvie 😀
I too enjoyed this. 🙂
Thanks so much, Johnny!
