The Battle of Moon Crater Four

Us Skyboys fought well
Hurled great clumps of moon rock
Monsters by thousands
Stormed our sky docks.

A roaring great battle
The best of the age
Books written in ink
Will light me on their page.

We drove them away
Each tail between legs
Their terrible scales
Flashed bright with red rage.

We ate fat Moon Pies
Drank glasses of cheese
We partied all night
Until we were ordered to leave.

Out flew the last Sunboat
But I was hot under the skin
I relived the great Battle
While they sailed off on the Wind.

I beat all of the monsters
Down in Moon Crater Four
And now I'm alone in space
No one comes this way
Anymore.
