I Dreamed This

The scene of a car crash.
A vast rural underpass.
Flowers dried by the verge.
Dried blood on the curb.
A pair of crisp jeans.
'Levis' '73.
A bell tolls through the breeze.
Stark rays beat the trees.
A diminutive cross
Indicates something lost.
A phantom wife kneels,
Prays that memory heals.
It doesn't.
