Between 5927 and 5944
I saw paper mache dinosaurs over studio walls.
spiraling spider webs
cocooned me
in glass shards.
gliding amidst capture
frozen by metal.
shock sets in
Death just whispered
sweet nothings
in my ear.

It's the strangest of details that stick with us, isn't it? Staggers the mind at times

Man. . .this is one of those poems that freeze your thought process: as a good movie, or book. Maybe even the lyrics to a song.
I would definitely lose 'that' and semi after in. A space would really enhance the impact of that ending.
And what an ending!

Times like these can really shake us up, as though halting time and perceiving only the tangible that is right in front of us. I’m glad the accident wasn’t anything worse!
