Through the Whisk

Silver flash in the sudsy pool! Tail flicked—buzz, hum! Darted headfirst into the basin. A giant metal balloon whisk lying submerged right across my path! No stopping, tilt left, bank sharp. Slid right between two flexible wire loops! The thin metal wires sprang outward, pinging soft against my orange flank as I squeezed through. A tight spiral of silver bubbles wrapped all around me, spinning fast into the drain vortex!
