just ends

  and ends

but kind of is

a memory

and a legacy

and a hope

and a light

and a chance for the future

and a chance for the fight

and a tool for the man

and a tool for the bright

yet a block for the screwed

yet a block for the shrewd

yet a 

    big step for mankind

and tiny leap for the moon
