Have you ever seen roadkill And think- oh **** did it know? A fleeting chance and - BAM! It’s gone. I think of that a lot. I think for a fleeting moment- That poor thing! Second thought: How lucky am I? That I get to continue living. …But third thought, hmm…is it better off? Is that strange? Maybe. That’s the course of life.
