on fixing a fallen star
a five-pointed star fell from the sky
landing in a field behind a row of houses
upon closer examination
it was made out of wood
it smelled like cedar
a wood that never dies
after crashing to the ground
it had busted in three places
one said we can piece it together
using glue & screws
another said and then we can hoist it
back into the sky using chains & pulleys
and a third agreed and ran with purpose
to fetch the necessary supplies
to repair the wounded star
april two thousand twenty-four

& lo!! the star is fast asleep~
