LUNAR MACHINERY

cold  
    gears  
        rotate

silent  
    calculation  
        of the UNSEEN  
              orbital  
                    precision  
                            and the palpable  
                                       clink

closely  
   witnessed  
          with CLOCKWORK RIGOR  
         strangely  
     assembled  
bronze


       perpetual  
reverberations
