Moths Poem by Mark Heathcote

Moths



Draw moth-like to a candlelit bosom
If darkness and night define the light
Under, what portents we see a woman?
Her agile, touch lights us up each night.
Overall percentage the universe
Is made up of 73 per cent dark energy
23 per cent dark matter, transverse-
ly leaves a rudimentary
Low,4 per cent composed of regular
-Matter, but how heavenly it is that
'1plus 1' experiences lethargy,
Like moths, drawn into a lovers spat
That they should, make-up one half of the known
And together uncover the unknown.
