And there I was, I was just hanging out, doing nothing. Then death appeared and said something dumb.

Welcome to Grief Club. This is death’s party and they know everyone. The Angel of Death is in pursuit, but their bicycle chain is rusted and you’ve already cycled across England.
The pallbearers of my grief
have slipped to their knees.
I wander through the shifting gloom
between streetlights, until
I hit the reaching black
of country roads —
those corners you can't see around.
The blazing hell of headlights.
He's coming, he's coming for me.
