Swimming pool

Baby fish swim in skew whiff circles,
catch the light of the juddering surface, gleam.

They break the surface bobbing 
bob bob. Fins flap 
spittering droplets at elder fish pushing past.
All tough muscle, tough love, 
elephant wrinkles at their creases. 

The shark slices, cutting water into bits.  
Swim away from his alive dead stare 
behind goggles. 

Frog kicks his elastic legs 
and sneezes.
Guppies burble bubbles, 
blink eyelashes of tiny droplets.

The shark has hair, wears red trunks of chlorine.
