collidescope

a pink flaming optical illusion
a gushing motorway trauma
a bending spectacle
a roll of tissue

paper tearing colours
past closed window panes
past pools of mercury
and the furious patterns
turning red
in jupiter's mad eye

all the ways a thing can break
beginning with chips and cracks
then the falling shards of glass
and subatomic dominoes

the numbers collapsing
the breeze-blocks pirouetting
the bricks and the cells
caught in chandelier tornadoes

this is broken light
this is refraction
