• In The Kingdom #19 (EVOL, 1986)

TAKE THE WHEEL OF THE WORLD AND................DRIVE.
THEY WERE ALIVE. LIKE HIM. HE WAS NO BETTER.
HE DID NOT NEED WORDS. HE DID NOT DENY HIS EXISTENCE.
HE MOVED IN DAILY STASIS. LIKE AN ANIMAL. SUNRISE COME.
THE WHITE RAILINGS. THE REFLECTIVE PAINT. REFLECTIVE PAIN.
HE WALKED. HE DID WHAT HE HAD TO. HE ASKED NO QUESTIONS.
HE HAD FEW CONVERSATIONS. THE TAR GLISTENS IN THE NOON HEAT.
HE TREAD ACROSS THE GRASS, UP ONTO, AND DOWN OFF OF,
THE CONCRETE ABUTTMENTS. MIRAGE ON THE HIGHWAY.
GHOSTS IN THE TUNNEL. THE DARK CAVE.
OUT INTO THE BLINDING LIGHT OF THE DAY AT BREAKNECK SPEED.
EVERY BOLT RUMBLING. GLISTENING HIGHWAY MIRAGE GROANS.
THE SLICK SURFACE. CAREENING INTO FIRST THE SMALL MAMMAL,
AND THEN SCREECHING ALONG THE GUARDRAIL,
SCRAPING PAINT AND THROWING SPARKS LIKE SHEETS OF
PURE TERROR FOR 400 YARDS. OVER AND OVER, WITH ONE
FINAL BACK AND FORTH ROCKING MOTION COMING TO REST,
HALF THE FRONT END RIPPED AWAY, SHEARED OFF BY THE GUARDRAILS.
THE BEAUTIFUL PAINT JOB HOPELESSLY MARRED. SMOKE AND FLAMES.
HE MOVES TO THE SMALL CREATURE. SEARING WHISTLES
OF STEAM BLOWING OFF,
(ECHOES OF THE BILLOWY SUNLIT CLOUDS HI ABOVE),
OIL AND OTHER PETROL-DISTILLATES EVERYWHERE, ON ITS BACK,
WHEELS SPINNING LIKE A CINEMA CLASSIC.
A DOOR SAGS OPEN AND A MAN COVERED IN HIS OWN BLOOD
DROPS THE THREE FEET OR SO THO THE PAVEMENT.
THE CAR STILL RATTLING AND SHAKING AS IF WITH A LIFE ALL ITS OWN,
UNWILLING TO DIE. THE MAN -- 40ISH, ALSO AFTER A TIME,
AN AGONIZINGLY PAINFUL UNFATHOMABLE PERIOD OF TIME,
TIME OF BEYOND TERROR TO THE DREAM OF REALITY --
IS ALSO UNWILLING TO DIE. HE REALIZES THIS AT LAST.
SUDDENLY ALL IS QUITE QUIET THERE IN THE SUNLIGHT, ON THE HIGHWAY.
BUT WHAT? WHAT CAN I DO? I CANNOT MOVE. EVERYTHING IS ABOUT BROKEN.
BLOOD EVERYWHERE MISING WITH THE OIL AND GAS (THAT OTHER BLOOD).
WHAT'S MOVING? MUST TURN MY HEAD. PAIN. UNBELIEVABLE BROKEN PAIN.
WHITE LIGHT. BLINDED. HUH SOME GUY THERE KNEELING IN THE
BLINDING MIRAGE OF WHITE LIGHT, ALL MY STRENGTH TO
"HAAAYA YUGGG OOOOHH."
SCREAMING NOW HELP ME PLEASE ME.
HE TRIED TO TAMP OUT THE BIT OF BURNING EMBER WHICH HAD LEPT
FROM THE WRECK ONTO HIS GRIMY COATSLEEVE. COUGHING BLOOD.
WHAT'S HAPPEN? HE'S. HE'S. INCHING TOWARDS FINAL TRUTH.
HE STRODE OFF INTO THE WOODS WITH THE ANIMAL (IT STILL LIVED),
DIDN'T GLANCE BACK AT ALL.
STILL OUT GHOSTING THE ROAD. DEATH ON THE HIGHWAY.
WORDS CRUMBLE AROUND ME, AND FALL WITH THE WEIGHT OF HEAVEN.
I CANNOT MOVE. I AM BENEATH THE GREAT WIEGHT. I CANNOT SEE.
MY EYES ARE BLINDED. I AM IN THE DARKNESS.
