A band that played <br />Hedgehogs at night <br />In orchestra <br />In corner dark <br />Yet in moonlight! <br /> <br />How slow <br />How slow <br />The band <br />The band that played <br />Those sad, sad tunes <br />And slow <br />That night! <br /> <br />And hedgehogs played <br />Played in moonlight <br />Played mournful slow <br />Played demoralized <br />Without a script <br />Save the heart's script <br />And all played slow <br />Robotic slow <br />For sad was night <br />And sad starlight.<br /><br />Emmanuel George Cefai<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-band-that-played/
