The Old Observatory























        The main entrance I knew to disregard:
        Those big bronze doors had long been locked and barred;
        Leaning my bike against “Do Not Loiter”,
        I set out on foot to reconnoiter.

        Weeds delayed my circumambulation
        As I thrashed about in consternation:

        Not a door would yield to my strength or weight—
        No entrance or exit or service gate.
