Nocturnal Ensemble

Termites  
                           chatter
                               hitting
                                typewriters
                                Neon tails 
                                    of
                                tiny-winged      
                                lanterns  
                                flutters
                                My Gemelina,          the Black foxes
                                roost                     singing sopranos
                                Giggling               Jiminy wonders
                                “Who”                  acoustics in vibrato
                                Hear Tom            Cat’s melancholic song,              
                                As the                bullfrogs played along       
                                Tiny swords        pierced my skin,       
                                Concertmaster   graces the stage again 
                                Then I cage owns core in my own Versailles
                                 Savoring myriad notes while I lay rest
                                    Illuminate the hall by the moonlit glee
                                      As the moon its maestro in honeyed
                                              Beethoven symphony
