World in a Champagne Glass 
by Faith Dincolo 

Bubbles rising to the surface

Like sperm on the egg

As they bubble on, bubble on

           Cyclone in a glass

.

 A miniature ocean

On the surface

Fleeting moments

           Like the tide

.

There’s a sea in my glass

An ocean on the surface

And with every sip

            The ocean doesn’t last

.

Bubble on, bubble on

Nothing lasts forever

Not the sperm, not the glass

            Not the oceans.
