Elizabeth

Sixty-five moments
taken away from her breath.
Malignancy seizing
each cell, one
by one.

Every heartbeat
pulsates

thump

thump

thump.

A lipstick red Ford accelerates.
The flaming decals slowly peel
away from the side panels.

Prayers cry out
as a tear traverses
her faithful lips.

Miracle of an evanesce.
