The Big Yellow Beast
THE BIG YELLOW BEAST
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
Back from a trip from the far east
Slowly but surely, rises the beast
Suddenly, there’s a shower of light
In an instant every direction is bright
Orbiting slowly along the way
Time used up, about half a day
Hovering over the timeless quest
Erasing darkness, while edging west
The beast is known for occasional tricks
A duel with the moon can cause an eclipse
At dusk the beast shimmers, goes away
At dawn back for the next act of the play
