underneath the earth
a couple hold hands
waiting for the train
that will separate them
she will board it
in her air of contentment
as he watches from the platform
full
i watch them, feel the radiation
of the two
unaware of me or anyone else
i spy and bathe in their afterglow
every so often they take it in turn
to initiate the most gentle and complete
hugs and caresses
nothing going to far for public affection
just making the world more lovely
for the ripples that extend far beyond just them
