A little tiny piece of the sky fell.

It really did.

But it was only a little tiny piece

Of the sky,

And when it hit the ground,

It didn’t shatter,

But it splashed blue brightly all around,

And that night stars slipped quietly

Down through the hole in the ozone

And skinny dipped in the ripples of the blue

And shivered in the chilly wind

That blew that night,

And threw great towels about their shoulders bare,

And then they shrugged and chatted casually 

About the great sky falling event

Of twenty-twenty,

And how different everything might be now.
