the old loyalton lift bridge incident

I look to the sky and once again I ask god why? on my way home tonight I stopped at a church and prayed and I asked God if I was right? I woke up just now and wondered if I was a bad person or if I was doing ok so I asked god about it on my bed where I lay . at work I tried to focus but the nagging curiosity would not stop messing with me of does my god want me to be with him in heaven or do I belong in hell so I asked god to help me somehow tell ....at that moment before I could get on the bridge a van flew past me side swiping my the front of my car and I lost control spinning around finally to a stop side ways right at the entrance to the bridge and this caused a semi truck to jackknife right next to me off the highway stopping just short of the cliff barley! The sound of tires screeching and and engines shutting down filled the on way 2 lane highway all the traffic behind the truck and I came to a hault . I was really relieved that all of this was not my fault . it was the driver of the van who caused it all . Then suddenly a loud grinding and banging as the ground shook we witnessed the big one way 2 lane steel lift bridge suddenly crumble fail fall ....a ship lost control and slammed the side of the bridge . alls all of us could do was watch from the ridge . not one truck or car lost not even a scratch . all people involved accounted for no injuries . the big ship that hit the bridge had no crew , it was a runaway and the driver of the van has not been located to this day . he made it across so there was no death no injury for 44 people no loss . so I asked god why me what was the point at that moment I was notified of the failed bridge and its faulty rusted pillar joint . they told me if not for me driving that day nobody would have made it across no dam way for the bridge had started to give way so my guess is god showed me what I was worth .. 44 lives and they all present at my church easter Sunday to give thanks and help me pray. . where my poems come from I dont know . its 6:30 am i just woke up grabbed my phone and started this poem . some are happy some sad some may make you mad other help me realize what i have and some are scary and some x rated and some make no sense at all ...thank all y'all for your awesome comments and support right on . this is mickeboy kicking the morning off with mornin mix rock tunes ..stay beautiful stay high ...
