Cooking Sausages In the Moon

There was a time a chef migrated to the moon
“Here I will do my business”, he whispered

he prepared the oven
but he had to come to earth for firewood

he needed water
but he had to come down to Lake Superior for fresh water

he made delicious sausages
but he had to come to Buenos Aires for customers

Then he had a second thought
I will migrate to the dark side of the moon

Happily the chef went
but he found only foot-marks of Chinese and garbage bins

The darkness overwhelmed him
But with hope alive, he reached Mars for another trial
