Swirling leaves
on a dark
street.
Fast cars
whiz by.
Headlights
dance
as pupils
widen.
I sit at
the red light
waiting
to go.
My body
a vehicle
inside a vehicle.
My mind
wanders
as the song
playing on
the radio
evokes
a memory.
I travel back
as the
light turns
green.
My body
a vehicle
within a
vehicle
moves forward.
A string
of time
folds and
unfolds
as internal
and
external
intersect.
