Bubbles float on air.
Air
On On
Float Float
On On
Air
Bubbles float on air.
Bubbles are dazzling rainbow planets we escape to.
Bubbles bridge the gap between the past and the present.
The magic orbs spiral up
down
and wrap around our minds.
Bringing our peace into sharper focus
Bubbles circle fast and track slow. Baffle us as they scatter…just out of …reach
Bubbles P O P without notice while they dance on thin light
Blowing bubbles requires that we breathe deeply
Releasing us from care.
Until the matrix calls us home.
