The Mersirens

A giant goldfish bowl
Splashed into the ocean
The life inside
Swam around
As mercurial bubbles
Rose to the surface
As the fish mouths
Seemed to speak....
From my observations
They kept repeating
Just one word
Bub bub bub
Unknown to me
Every bub
Had possible multiple meanings
And it became to late
Before i realised
That they weren't fish
But an alien invasion force
From a distant water world
Within seconds
Or was it days?
A large bubble
Not disimilar
To the one from The Prisoner
Engulfed me
As i was sucked into
This giant goldfish bowl
And taken hostage
Then commenced the probing
Of which i shall not speak
But i will never
Not ever
Look at Haddock
In the same way
Ever again
Meanwhile
The fishy aliens
Decided to return
To Water World
And were never seen again!
