On the Sky

They wrote their words on the sky

And trusted we would listen

Towering in the blue

They bawled out their tale

Like heaven’s bugle

We were called to our duty

By a celestial memo

They wrote their words on the sky

And waited for us to obey

While they waited

Five minutes later

The words had drifted away on the wind

The sky was left

Clear, and bright, and limitless

And so were we
