Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star How I wonder what you are Up above in space so high Shining brightly in the sky We see you shining in the night Bringing to us endless fright Twinkle, twinkle, Blinking Star Will you tell us who you are? Up above the world so high You're a menace in the sky Twinkle, twinkle, Pulsing Star Are we sure that's what you are? A shining star of doom and woe, To challenge what we think we know So, you glimmer without pause Defying all of nature's laws Show us who you have inside Bring back to us those who died We are waiting for your move You have nothing left to prove You keep shining, Deadly Star Show us what you really are You have made us so afraid Someone please come to our aid Now the night sky is so dark You have left us with your mark Should we see another day Leave our world in peace, we pray We do not know why you're here Making people disappear Will you leave our world in peace? Let us try to rebuild, please Our people are dying out You're stronger than us, there's no doubt But when humans gather and believe There's nothing we can't achieve Know this, evil, Blinking Star We know exactly what you are Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star You've shown us how small we are With your light so large and bright, Will you help us through the night? We are tired and full of dread Prepare us for what's up ahead Through the dark and death you shine, Our whole world is on the line Bleeding wounds and fractured hearts, Save us from our broken parts Now, thanks to you, we have a chance And so we take our final stance Finally, a star retracts In the storm, the thunder cracks You've claimed a life in outer space And took him to a different place Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star Now you've gone away so far

The Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, Little Star How I wonder what you are Up above in space so high Shining brightly in the sky We see you shining in the night Bringing to us endless fright Twinkle, twinkle, Blinking Star Will you tell us who you are?

A dark rendition of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, and a poem in my debut novel, The Protocol Experiment.
