I am underground

the flicker boards

pause and resume

lights hiss like a flash bulb-

Stone upon stone

holds up the earth

so we may pass through.

The eye of the needle

narrows down dark,

the insects pause and resume.

A blur of humanity

mirrors by like

two crickets in the night-

two electric worms.

Hollow chambers chafe their

walls on chalk and embers

so many sparks-

We glide by like dragonflies

intertwined.

Motion moving motion

and their conjugate kiss…

Speeding on the rails' edge,

 I am not ready for the light

when it hits!

We are ghost shadows sharing air.

Out of the gray mouth

of coal, rock and lime,

steel upon steel takes the bridge.
