Crossguard

A crosswalk is there for us to walk across. Directing us from one side to another. Vibrant shades of white lead the way. Eluding the mayhem occurring during the day. We're not bound to just a walking task. We could limp or we could skip. We could jog or we could run. We could hop or we could crawl. There's also the option to roll across. Whichever suits the user's needs. It keeps the system pleased. When the vehicles immobilize. Blocking their own passage for the passing. A feeling of gratitude forms in the heart. A path cleared for the travelers to part. An ordinance creating major coordination, glamorizing the whole nation. The vehicles that brushed on through. Leaving us battered and bruised. Left there wondering what to do. The perpetrators sped away without a clue. Headed for decapitation. While the victims lost the heart to move. Delivered to be resuscitated. It's not nice to ignore the signs. Disrespecting our fellow human lives. You may have to watch yourself kill a guy. Do us all a favor and obey the line. In return, we'll be sure to shine. Illuminating the road ahead for all to find.
