Puzzle

Fifty-three times the number one
came caterpillars,
a twisting train of one-one-oneing
once.

The caterpillars were a chain of days
as well as fifty-three nights,
all adding to the magic 
number: one.

The minted moons of those tided nights
added nothing to the number one
since all were experienced 
together, 

illustrating something:
How syllabic prisms of ecstatic delight 
may be born of 
a pedestrian experience.
