He reached down to get it, fumbled with it for only a moment, but when he finally raised his head, all he saw was the bright headlights of an oncoming truck, before he died. (less)

“Freedom is a choice
That one must constantly defend
A precious thing
You wouldn’t give away or lend
Still some do
Because they do not comprehend
That once it’s gone
They’ll be controlled by other men”
