on the opposite

on the opposite
side of the track, you rivet
me, and as the train
rushes into the station

jigsaw puzzling of
your face, arms,
legs, look, pose

putting them back
together again, linked
in slivers
of glass and gaps
between coupled
cars, a classic
theme and variation

that we pack the trains
every morning, side
by side, plugged in,
absorbed, seeing
without looking
