Colony of Star(e)Su(o)n

In the bungalow colony wherein lived bats and fairies
Oh, and yes... the human beings to be found as well.

A full solar eclipse did occasion on the calendar one year.
Parental warnings of melting eyeballs from staring
Directly at our central and most glorious star: the sun
Affectionately nicknamed ~ one who comes after...

Drove M.G. and me under the beds in the corner
For the entire event, in childhood fear & imagination

I missed it.
I missed it.
I missed it.

The fear of not being able to resist the careful warning toll
Preserved my orbs sheathed in their dark hole.

Once I listened to absurdity.
