Replying to a comment on:

falling in with the wrong crowd. (Free verse) by richa

The heart does not stop, when we stop listening to its beat, nor thoughts of the travelling man, though a diamond may cut his windscreen with light and for a moment take the pole of his gaze like a magnet.

I'm a bit confused myself.

The image is light, but I was thinking of a magpie flying across with a jewel reflecting the light.

The image is to tease the reader, a diamond cutting like on an industrial lathe/ no it is light like a diamond/ no the diamond exists but the light is what cuts.
