The Old Observatory























        The intruders were nowhere to be seen
        In the light of two dim bulbs glowing green;
        The telescope was set up for viewing—
        These trespassers knew what they were doing.

        I edged along the rim to the top rung
        Of a metal ladder rigidly hung

        Right on the inner cylindrical wall,
        And went down slowly to avoid a fall.
