The Old Observatory























        After a couple of minutes had passed
        The building briefly shook from a rocket’s blast,
        Breaking me free of my paralysis—
        I ran without further analysis

        Up to the chamber with the telescope,
        But there it was so dark I had to grope

        Blindly—then my eyes became adjusted:
        What I saw at first made me disgusted.
