10. Choose Between Life and Death
It's a life or death decision
and yet it's so tranquil, so calm.
They stand in the middle of the footpath,
all alone.
Leaves flutter in the breeze above them.
Somewhere in the next street, a cat mewls.
There are cars further ahead
and further behind.
Here though, at the moment of truth,
it's just the two of them
and a smile.
