I knew a young girl
just a pretty face
who lost her mind
in outer space
with a celestial body
decidedly racy
out of this world
but totally spacey
not quite the brightest light
it's true (but what a view) and yet
when gazing at the moon
turned loony... a space cadet
and 'twas the lunar orb
(waxing, waning, new or blue)
of that there's no doubt
whose gravitational pull
simply put... spaced her out

She spins,
holding us in our place.
Do we know our purpose,
or better yet our fate?
She talks to us
with rain, winds and viruses.
These things that she moves are warnings
but do they really siren us?
We tend to act selfishly
and look the other way,
chopping down forests and polluting all we touch
each and every day.
I want to make a difference
to this spacey globe.
I, means you and me
with everything we know.
It all begins by
asking simple little questions,
that can cascade to millions of people
repeating what we mention.
Why does every person
produce so much useless waste?
Why don't we love all creatures
that coinhabit within our gates?
She wants us to care for her,
to treat her like her friend.
Then why is it that we are bringing
her and ourselves to a bitter end?

~ Herr Kevin Spacey Fowler
Gifted actor or gifted prowler?
Seems his unusual center-of-gravity
Changed dramas to depravity. ~

Kevin Spacey, Honorary Commander of the British Empire
Set his sister's tree hut on fire!
Usual suspect, little git,
with tyre likes to hit!

Actor Kevin Spacey
Reputation’s racy
After his Netflix scandalous outrage
Most want to keep him offstage

I've often been called a wee bit spacey
Not Kevin you twits, I'm a different daisy
March to my own beat
Not the norm but still sweet
Spacey I'll accept but more like pasty

S is for SPACEY
just feeling kinda spacey
in an outfit kinda lacey
as I watch the sleeping cat
the sunbeams growing fat
it’s not that I don’t care
just a dust dream in the air
floating through the sunny rays
in a spacey, lacey haze
but I’ll be back as soon
as the sun-rays leave the room
to remove this lacy hat
to wake that sleeping cat.
