Through the tunnel
where safety lights diffract
and our cigarettes filter the exhaust fumes
where oil forms rainbows on concrete
and lilacs grow through the cracks
these incandescent heartbeats
in passing cars, passing by
and you lightly, like
a dragonfly,
realigning
to catch the light
in your half opened eye.
