Trim astronauts spin around
the moon, but I won’t take
weight-loss drugs. I am
the last jolly fat man. After
Santa Claus’ assassination
for shaking like a jelly bowl.
Dark side of Luna would be
a good place to stash Krispy
Kreme doughnuts. Following
Thin Police force-feeding
people non-sat fat synthetic
meats to prevent cancer &
amorous reactions. Krishnas
know garlic & onions are
aphrodisiacs. Ask an Italian
American Catholic father of 13.
But good luck to the ‘nauts.
Imagine one drinking Tang
through a straw as another
cracks a joke. First spews
little orange bubbles through-
out the zero-gravity cockpit.
Nothing Houston can’t handle.
