So you stuck your stars in the sky,
and I watched you push the pin
into each one. Quietly I wondered
if I pulled a pin, would it explode?
I didn’t try it. I watched you,
watched you explode instead,
become something great, something
I could never be.
They told me I could teach,
since I couldn’t do. That is what I did.
I’ve taught you. The stars are your
creation, and you are mine.
And I go unrecognized.
