The Spectacle

One day something so magical fell from the sky
And all of the people they gathered to try
To catch it, all that they wanted
Forgetting they put it there
In their millions they traveled
And hope they might see
The closer they got
The more distant they’d be
To hold it, all that they wanted
Getting they pulled it there
And so into the darkness, they buried their lives
And gave it away to the stars and the sky
To catch it, all that they wanted
Forgetting they put it there
To hold it all that they wanted
Forgetting it was theirs
