What a Bloody Waste

I don’t care what you say
she said ..
Just leave me alone to get
high in my
own head, so he did, and she
promptly
threw herself from a bridge ..
The driver she
hit, died there at the scene ..
All the
newspaper headlines say he
died instantly ..
While she, on the other hand
sits peeling grapes
while writing her memoirs in
an NHS
hospital bed somewhere ..
