9. The Second Life (Free verse) by A db C

Arising, awakening, dizzy, shaking Inside another body, person I do not remember being, seeing. Arms, elbows, wrists, veins Actuating tremors, spasms; Before arising to a new brain. Legs, knees, back ache As this body gets to its feet, Another person with all my pains. Glancing over the shoulder To see survivors finding cover From flames and petrol fumes That rise as a choking pillar To illuminate the gloom. Walking off into the woods, The trees by the A14; A shortcut to the office To leave the morning, The crash victims behind me.
