Analysis of pluto pt 2



do you know how many moons pluto has?
under a serene light, perhaps it is clear
an answer buried yet eerily near
exposed in a moment God willed to pass
fabricating silver in jerusalem; dead at last
full of pride, pluto, though meek and meer
full of pride, pluto, i envy thee, dear
your thievery treasures in a bundle of mass

adorned with a coat borrowed from the sun
way beyond the orbit of poeidon’s rise
cuddled and sheltered, like a poor babe thumb
small and sickly, like a planet met demise
minor scale resonates, a melody left hung
my pluto, i know, i have seen your five
