Crash

It takes less than three seconds to make a mistake.
After those three seconds consequences are considered.
It's just like being on the road.
It take less than three seconds to make the wrong turn.
Then end up in a pile of junk.
That's what killed a friend, a close one of mine.
Drunk or not when your on the road.
Your life will be forever at stake
Through life that is held by the thread of time.

As I think about what I just wrote
it showed me something important.
As you were reading this,
about ten people died,
killed by a drunk driver.
Including my dear friend, a close one of mine.
