The Object

Frightened protohumans
Discover it in the dunes. 
It teaches them how to use tools. 
Thus spake Zarathustra. 

Later it moves to the moon. 

Led Zeppelin need something cool
For the cover of their new 
Album. An artist uses 
Its presence in unusual 
Places to portray a point of view. 

Jimmy Page asks him to
Twist it. Robert Plant loses 
Track of it. Many years later, he muses
He might be using it 
As a doorstop.
