On our way to
Mercury
with Captain James T.
Kirk, you re-
alize," We trek where
alize," We trek where
no one's trekk'd before."
On our way to
Venus,
we quiz Spock, "Hey! Just be-
tween us,
did you recollect to
check the pod bay door...?
On our way to
Saturn
we drop by Pan's* habi-
tat, earn-
ing a billion frequent
flier miles en route.
* One of Saturn's several moons
On our way to
Uranus
with Troi, you order
her 'n' us,
to power wash and
press each pressure suit.
On our way to
Mars,
while "Bones" unpacks his spec'men
jars,
we hear his, "Dammit, I'm a
doctor, not a bellboy."
On our way to
Neptune,
though La Forge thinks you're in-
ept, un-
animous opinion
(nearly) dubs you Hellboy.
On our way to
Pluto,
should Montgom'ry Scott fall
mute...? Oh,
yeah! Just beam us up but
lose that Glasgow Burr!
On our way to
Jupiter
Uhura claims the
croup put her
in sick bay all last
week. The cause...? Obscure.
To Earth we
now must go.
Jean-Luc Picard says,
"Make it so!"
But we must not ignore the
Moon as we fly by:
the Moon, whereon's the
Monolith,
that kitsch from Kubrick's
sci-fi myth.
(It's Space: we loathe the
sci...but love the fi.)
