pre-mortem.

as thoughts
become actions
they can also become
dangerous
sometimes
it's not what we do
it's what we don't
that haunts us
needles and smoke
knives and bullets
even love
keep your eyes
open
be careful when you blink
right now
we are all here
and some things
require a second
thought
we all know
that the truth
can hurt
and as tragedy
seems less shocking
and we are more surprised
by a smile
we need to keep on
smiling
we need to set
the tone
we need to keep it
together
we can not let
the story of our lives
become
the story of
our death
...
