Poem: FIREFLY, RTE 8 (ef)

(Knox to Plymouth)

With a spasm of bright lime twinkle
It broke its flight on the windshield
A pinprick supernova
Crackling into skittered pathways
Of fading green fire
Surprised and saddened
The road ahead deepening
Steady yellow dashes
No further signals.

Very nice! Loved the word choices, like spasm, pinprick, skittered.
