-- pain, unaware then suddenly awake lying on my left side. awkward angle. can't feel it, but it looks wrong.
can't blink. can't hear. not even my pulse.
sliding glass door and it's open behind vertical blinds.
no sensation to connect but i'm lying in a pool of blood on a cheap beige carpet. glass everywhere.
didn't feel the footsteps on the carpet beside my head. saw them bounce my vision a bit.
blood drains away toward a black leather shoe.
right eye's getting blurry, darkening slowly toward the bridge of my nose. little twitches in my eyelid. hemorrhaging. won't see much more.
so quiet
head moved. i think i FELT - cold - against the side of my head
a gun maybe. can't see. the movement skews my vision to the side. no fear, just slow processing information through a fog of silence and blood loss.
I have a thought of wanting to see this from some other vantage.
the flash - (i thought i'd flinch but my eyes don't close)
...mental reflexes, no movement
losing the other eye. blood dripping across my lashes.
more glass falling now. I can't connect it with anything.
beautiful. tiny flashes of sunlight all over
tired...
