I wonder
if that moment exists
if everyone has it
that moment of
oh, I’m going to die
I wonder if everything slows
into a near pause,
where the scene freezes,
and precarious icicles are overhead
and they realize
that it is over, now
it could be for just a split second
or maybe even less than that
but do people have it?
or do some die still believing
that they are alive
and that they will keep living
and keep breathing
