msh+bell

"Together we swam around the room ... till the bell rang". All the students swim in the poetry being interested in it till the end of the class. Then when the bell rings all the illusion ends like when you wake up in the middle of the dream. The bell "punctures a hole in the door" and all the water exits along with the "fish" swimming in it. A bell could be like your wristwatch waking you up at 7 in the morning and ending your dream, but for a little while you still have some memory of the dream. That's what the line "I (went) home where Queen Elizabeth my cat met me and licked my fins till they were hands again." is saying. He slowly gets back into reality.
