Crystal and Dust, Daily 24

24:Drops of color splinter from the crystal’s sharp edges--
From the hard clearness,
Blue splays
Orange dances
Green jumps
Purple plays
As yellow mellows
Down the hot day.
Even through the dust
that filters light’s passage,
Rainbow’s essence delights the ceiling.
Beams win against a decade of unwashed window.

I like the principal image but it feels a bit rough. The sudden jumps in lines 8 and 10 prove jarring and disorienting.
