Moon Landing Skeptic
I'm no rocket scientist
but found out today,
its been 47 years ago
the 3 amigos went away,
supposedly landing in
their lunar module
aka Apollo 11,
getting close as they could
almost touching Heaven,
after all their fanfare
and all their boasts,
there is a lot of
evidence they couldn't
have or they would've
been toast,
so I guess you could
call this poem
a skeptical roast,
if they'd flown 1,000 miles up
through the Van Allen
Radiation Belts
they wouldn't have survived
all that radiation and heat,
so I for one am skeptical
about this 1969
moon landing feat,
frankly feeling that
the only man
in the moon I've
ever seen,
is from the Honeymooners,
the actor, a Mr. Jackie Gleason.
