When men walked on the moon
The world became more safe for rockets
Newton won.
The New York Times
Proclaimed the victory in caps
Equal to a President's resignation
Greater than the atom bomb or killing microbes or Presidents.
This thing of moon walk
Ever travels with us.
It is for youth to carry
With brash certainty.
Age becomes more careful.
We must ever struggle with the details and the concepts
Carelessly built rockets can destroy.
Zeitgeist also is good fuel
It helps us understand the California Freeway or failing in business
Or a thousand other Waterloo's.
