Challenge
Write a piece either poetry or prose, where each word starts with the next letter of the alphabet
Forget. (Abridged)
A crunch.
Blue lights.
Car crash.
Death.
Everyone bloodied.
Forget the scene.
"Get help!"
Help, too late?
I tell myself, "Forget the scene."
Seconds too late.
Killed by a steering wheel.
Lacerated by glass.
Mom, daughter, sister? This woman was someone.
Nurse, boyfriend, son? This man had a life.
Open wounds.
Police investigate.
"Quick to die,"
Repeating, "Forget the scene."
So long, drivers.
Truck driver steps out.
"Unbelie-" he falters.
Very understandable, his confusion, frustration.
"Why this?!"
Xanthoriatic, unable to do more than trucking, surely losing this job.
You didn't mean to.
Zeal, innocence, job- lost. Forget the scene.
