Callisto capriccioso
Callisto Capriccioso
Callisto perfetto
A speckled frigid moon
With stunning views of Jupiter
Enough to make you swoon
Callisto prunello
As old as old can be
With craters, wrinkles, spots and all
And subterranean sea
Callisto notturno
Your sky’s so clear at night
When Galileo saw you first
He got a thrill all right
Callisto maestoso
Serene in orbit true
Same hemisphere in inward pose
No moon to bump into
Callisto Mephisto
What lurks inside your core?
A horde of alien spaceships or
a viral swarm, or more?
