On the way to work,

Early morning sun,

Up but few degrees,

Shoots through the cut‑glass,

Many‑faceted

Pendant hanging from

The rear‑view mirror,

A dazzling, swirling

Rainbow laser beam  

This activity

Is unusual,

Though it's well known that

This crystal prism

Glints pretty colors,

Whether day or night  

The Pink Floyd music

On the tape playing,

Though background 'til now,

Emerges from an

Instrumental run

Into vocals with

Lyrics eerily

Appropriate for

The moment:

"Shine on,

You crazy diamond"
