Star alliance

they gather together
to watch and to plan
they need to
organise
to watch out for the man

he passes through their world
briefly allowing them
to bask in his sunshine

they are the star alliance
waiting for their hero
wanting to be his
annointed one

but it is they who
annointed him
they made him shine
they made him the sun

one day they will
break the faith
one day they will see
another
they will steal his sunshine
and he will live
in the shadows again.
