today i saw

a man in a car
staring ahead
oblivious to the green light
before him

and

a woman
behind him, face contorted
arms waving in anger
horn blaring

neither of them conscious

i wanted to
wake them up
with my Love

but

it seemed
their windows were shut
and
their car doors locked

oh well

hard to get
the attention of
people asleep
at the wheel…
