drowning (Remove filter)
Death in Paradise (testimony of a witnessed event)
A body falls…
Men dive in
Phones ring out
Faces look shocked
The ambulance arrives…
A dead body is put inside
And the corner shop is
Open…
We put the beer in the bag
Hope the water is back on
Plan the telly
…
As an ambulance speeds by
Under a milky moon
Back home…
the neighbour
Brushed by…
his brother had drowned
and died
