their leaves collecting neon from the avenue.

At four a.m. the laundromat aquariums with light,
shirts turning like slow planets behind round glass.
Outside, rain beads the bikes into bright-boned animals,
and the street exhales steam through iron grates.

a second Prague trembling under my shoes.

A bicycle bell rings once from the fence,
then silence folds itself like wet linen.

An old greenhouse rides the spine of a satellite,
windows fogged with basil, rust, and forgotten rain.
Earth turns below like a slow blue metronome.

while buses exhale warm rain into the dark.

At the last platform, rain hangs in bright threads
between sodium lamps and the dark mouth of the tunnel.
A violin leaks from someone's phone,
thin as steam rising from a paper cup.

At midnight the empty lot begins to hum,
rebar lifting its wet shoulders out of mud,
old rain cupped in tire ruts reflecting constellations,
a grammar of broken glass learning to shine.

holding the last gold buses like small comets,
while rain threads neon into the gutters
and the sidewalks tune themselves to footsteps.
