-Ripley’s Believe It Or Not?-
Who hasn’t seen
a plain ordinary
steel needle float serene
on water as if lying on a pillow?
The water curdles up like Jell-O.
Its a treat to see water
so rubbery a needle
so peaceful, the point encased
in the tenderest dimple
It seems so simple
when things or people
have modified each others qualities
somewhat:
we almost forget the oddity
of that.
