Novelty Item

was just a 
novelty item 
within the minds 
of the crowd that 
had gathered to 
watch the show 
unfold right in front 
of their eyes full 
of disbelief 
there stood two 
hearts flouting above 
the ground 
then out of no were 
one came crashing down 
turning to dust 
disappearing into thin air 
afterwords the remaining 
heart flouted away into the distance 
without a second look
