The Eagle Has Landed (and Left)

The Eagle Has Landed (and Left)


We went to the moon today,
‘Tho fifty-two years ago.
It’s still just as far away
As a man has put his toe.

Twenty-four circled the moon,
Ten lunanauts still survive,
All may be gone rather soon --
The youngest is eighty-five.

Twelve Apollo crew went below
And they took a stroll around.
Some photos, some rocks to stow,
And then they left lunar ground.

When will we go back again,
‘Tho some people just ask why.
Is the moon in our domain
Or is that too far to fly?


A Second Helping?


Billionaires‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌moon,‌ ‌a‌ ‌new‌ ‌meme,‌
‌ Using‌ ‌their‌ ‌cash‌ ‌to‌ ‌fuel‌ ‌their‌ ‌pipe‌ ‌dream.‌
‌    ‌It’s‌ ‌a‌ ‌race‌ ‌to‌ ‌buy‌ ‌fame‌ ‌
   ‌And‌ ‌extend‌ ‌their‌ ‌brand‌ ‌name‌ ‌
Or‌ ‌the‌ ‌latest‌ ‌tax‌ ‌evasion‌ ‌scheme.‌ ‌
