they don't even look

i almost
run four or five people
over
this week.
all of them, staring into
their phones
and without looking
crossing
quickly across the street.
i have the green light,
but they've
come out of nowhere.
i slam on the breaks,
they don't even look up,
they have no
clue that they were almost
hit by a car.
life for them
goes on.
but barely.
