FAVOURED

I'm your favoured roadkill
Resting my head on white painted lines
Doppler effect of light upon moon white skin
My legs lost in a ditch
Five miles back
Unseeing eyes upon the end
The gulping of air
Glugging and gasping
My heart misplaced in the middle of the road
I threw it up as I wandered out
I ignored the blinding headlights…
It's thumping as cars continue
To pass over it
What pretty roadkill
Shame
It's missing the important parts
If the wolves eat me
Then nothing else can touch me
Mercy is rarely bloodless
