MOON-MARKETING by RICHARD THOMAS LE GALLIENNE

First Line: LET'S GO TO MARKET IN THE MOON
Last Line: WHERE NOBODY CAN FIND US.
LET'S go to market in the moon,
And buy some dreams together,
Slip on your little silver shoon,
And don your cap and feather;
No need of petticoat or stocking --
No one up there will think it shocking.

Across the dew,
Just I and you,
With all the world behind us;
Away from rules,
Away from fools,
Where nobody can find us.
