One Second

It only takes one second
for the soul to leave the body.

A flicker on the screen,
a tightening of the face
and it drains right out.

From the head-
through the heart-
out of the feet-
onto the highly polished
gray flecked white
linoleum floor.

The pathways of ecstasy
become vacant,

the heart becomes hollow,
and the mind numbed
becomes one-pointedly empty.

Gone; hope,
joy, elation.

It only takes one second
for the soul to leave the body.
