The Ghosts of Kingston road
They had a pair of fire trucks blocking Kingston road both ways at the Markham road intersection. The results of an accident which had taken place not twenty minutes before were in plain sight as I turned north on Markham road to avoid the mess. It was a serious accident, a real scene of the city, I learn latter that someone died inside of the wreck that sat tomblike in the middle of the intersection. Paramedics moved around the broken parts of cars and Harleys, attending to the lesser broken bodies that were not raced to Scarborough General.
I know that hospital, I was born there. On my right is the rink where I learned to skate, on my left is the Church were I was Baptized. Next to that is one of my former elementary schools, I attended six, I have good memories of three, three are located on or just off Kingston road, I have good memories of two of them.
There was a full moon out that night, I always take Kingston road to work, I always drive by Markham road, my doctor's office is on the southwest corner of intersection. I wonder if the ghost of the person that died here will haunt this intersection, will I observe a lonesome spirit one night as a drive by on my way to work or to the doctor's? Some memory of what happened, a memory similar to the memories I have of the places surrounding where it happened. Or will it be haunted because everytime I drive past that point I'll remember that someone died there?
Strange things happen in the city under the full moon. Hell strange things happen in the city under any moon.
