Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Fake Moon Landing

Neil Armstrong once was asked about

Being the first man on the moon.

He said at first, trip was in doubt,

So fake landing seemed opportune

To make the Commies jealous, so

Hollywood said a fake film could

Be made in well propped studio,

Fool the Commies as true and good.

After a billion dollars spent

And months of work to no avail,

Hollywood was forced to relent

That its efforts were gonna fail.

Hollywood could not get it right,

So the film was produced on sight.
