Gravimetric

The moon betwixt the new and full  
goes through the afternoon,  
then from the full the Earth will pull  
it back to newly lune.  
 
And thus as heaven's shuttlecock  
it rackets to and fro  
above the sultry summer stock  
and over winter snow.  
 
Thereby is how the game is played,  
by every planetoid,  
in varied orbitals arrayed  
throughout the stellar void...  
 
where nothing postulates the math  
no entity at all
but nature as a psychopath
who likes to have things fall.
