indexfinger submarine emerges
lifts one bubble up but it pops
the other two pop

make more bubbles on the bathwater
push the air down
come up the bubbles
most pop

some don’t pop

the bubbles slip
from my fingertip
one doesn’t

slowly…
an inch above the surface
…slowly

it pops
 

make more bubbles on the bathwater
which bubble will be lucky?

now more careful deciding
hmm that one looks sweet
very round, not shimmering, seems solid

it pops
 

more bubbles
don’t think
fast
lift them out

where’d they go?


shh
there’s one
kindof in the corner
a bit far a bit small
