RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
The Road to Space
The privilege of wealth
Is to place ones fingertips
On the very edge of space
Like an infant taking his first step
We shoot rockets to the moon
Shuttle astronauts to space stations
And let billionaires collect the thrills
Of glimpsing the edge of oblivion
The man of wealth and vision is right
We will destroy this beautiful planet
If we do not pave the road to space
If we do not transfer industry
To less hospitable climes
So let them collect the glory
That belongs to humankind
It is the greater story
That history will find
Save the planet by developing space
Save the planet for the human race
[Blue Origin takes Bezos to space.]
