Crash Dummy

first

was a tree

just a bump nothing big

second

was a dumpster

just a scratch not to worry

third

was a t-bone

as that car crossed the highway into the side

that I sat in as my head hit windshield

just some whiplash, a bump, and nose blood

fourth

was a fender kiss

just a dent nothing major

fifth

another t-bone

tipping the old van over to its side

as I crawled out the busted windshield

just some bumps and cuts, alright

sixth

got rear ended

spilled some coffee, nothing burned

seventh

burst a tire

running over a concrete berm

Who knows how bad the next will be

or if I'll walk away next time like I have before

which is why every time I leave the house

I kiss you goodbye

just in case

it really is

goodbye
