Primordial Swill

I looked up to see  
                          A voracious mite looking down at me
                                    Looking up to see
                          Glowing plankton looking down at me
                                    Looking up to see
                          Busy Nano in the primordial swill 
                                    Looking down at me 
                                     Looking up to see
                               The alarm clock telling me
                                Wake up and go to work 


I had a great time writing this poem for Nina Parmenter's
Mini Verse poetry contest on this second Wednesday 
in July, twenty nineteen
