The Mystery of the
Lunar Month
The reality of the lunar month
A tiny bat jerking and jinking through the dusk
In pursuit of its evening mosquitoes
Beneath a far-up vapor trail
The mystery of the lunar month
Calculated by wise ones in the long ago
With night far gentler than the solar heat
And minds more subtle than the glare of day
Each a mathematical autocrat
(Smoking an after-dinner ziggurat?)
