What Do You See?

the sun is setting behind the bay bridge right now, 
and the remaining sunlight is causing 
houses on the other side of the water to glitter, 
like flecks of gold in the horizon. 
contrasted with such muted 
grays and 
blues and 
purples. 

and that's how I feel right now. 
like there's this shimmering thing, 
out of my reach but in my line of sight, 
and I don't actually know what it is. 
but a piece of it is stuck behind my rib cage 
and everything feels intensified. 

the bridge is alive now, 
a thousand electronic fire flies 
with stories to share of fish on the move.
