An Accident

A man lies on the road & red is the pavement beside him.

He lies still and his vehicle's wheels, though moving, go nowhere.

His latest gizmos,a cell phone an an iPod lie beside him.

His worth, a wallet, with three plastic money sources peeps out of his pocket.

Fifteen  minutes pass.

Once he could move, but now he's still there.

Things he owned, that were immobile, have suddenly disappeared & things that disappeared, are valued more.

Sadly,that's your worth, and that's how most value others.

Sadly, the value of human lives is no longer - the life, but what material stuff we gather.
