Oh, my stars
You should've seen it
From the sky
A piece of ice fell
On the walk
Where pigeons gather
At the time
They all departed
Sinking slow
The late sun found it
I kept still
I did not touch it
Oh, my stars
You should've seen it
In the den
While I sat reading
I did not see
The stranger watching
My dad chased
Him down the driveway
He could have k**ed him
He wished he k**ed him
Sirens wailed
Floodlights shined in
All the rooms
Of our house
Oh, my stars
You should've seen it
Hard and blue
White and brilliant
