Pluto's Lament
by Bruce Golden
Too mild, too meek, too small,
Giving astronomers fits.
“Dwarfed” by the gang of eight,
Desperate for some Hollywood glitz.
Scrutinized-
Its orbit an eccentric case.
Ghettoized-
Too far out in space.
Subcategorized-
Defined out of place.
Under the sway of Neptune
Say stargazers, picking nits.
Just a mistake once made,
Now in need of a media blitz.
