I don't know if this is a music poem or a planet poem.
The Distant Moon
A boy named Stan goes to a restaurant
accompanied by Stephanie, his aunt
**at noon the twelfth of June.
Stan has salad, soup, and broiled fish;
aunt Stephanie has rice and a side dish
**of beans. They hear a tune
played on a baby grand: it’s “Clair de Lune.”
The restaurant is called “The Distant Moon.”
**They think something is queer
about the place. Their lunch is quite delicious,
yet there is something here that seems fictitious.
**There is no atmosphere.
