THE IMPROBABLE GOLDFISH
Globe eyed goldfish in a globe
lighting the vast twilight void
in watery ethereal softness
hypnotizing
fuzzing
into unconsciousness.
Into everything.
Staring as it levitates
out and down the street.
Ribald dogs sit stunned
and observe the peculiarity
and unnaturalness of it's travel.
The neighbor who seldom combs
a thinning and middling dome
climbs out the window.
Stands slack jawed and transfixed.
Slight breezes lift the hairs
like electricity of the supernatural.
Young men and women
take cell phone video
cry and exalt and are afraid.
Quiet "ohs" and sobs echo
through the evening
above manicured lawns
and multiply behind it.
"Can you hear me Jesus!"
and jostling,
inadvertently zombified.
The goldfish watch
the lights and dogs and suburban American
creation of life
with globe eyes floating
in the water.
Spinning and swimming
in their translucent,
glowing marvel of an
anti-gravity inexplkity.
