The Moon

Tom Ball

I

The moon was for lovers in the past
But the Moon landing should have landed
Lovers and comedians and our best entertainers

To inspire people to want to go to the moon

At present few want to go to the moon

In fact, now people are apathetic about the moon
And sci-fi is much lower quality than in the 50’s and 60’s
The moon landing was counter productive

Maybe one day they can do reality shows on the Moon
And make it a multitrillion dollar industry

II

Maybe set up moon sports like racing and baseball

Also dancing and figure skating on the lunar surface.

As you dance in the low gravity

Good sex on the moon
People say you need threesomes in order to hold down one of the lovers

Multicolored forests, multi layers of art
Cover the surface of the moon like a Van Gogh

So too the other planets and moons

III

Set up a new civilization
Caring, kind and nice in a universe of cruelty...

But tyrants will appear... Sooner or later

Utopia never lasts relatively speaking
As society is always changing

You say “nice guys finish last in the end”

IV

What is the moon but a challenge for us
To completely dominate

Settle the moon with underground settlements

Some say there’s nothing on the moon...
But they have limited imaginations

Call people’s bluff
Do they have no preconceived notions?
Can they open their mind...?
Big reward for an open mind
As always

V

Under a brilliant moon, women and men
Can be overcome with desire

The moon is still for lovers
