blue suede shoes

i don't know really
what NASA found on the moon
but today i listened to
an old Pink Floyd tune
and thought about a trip to Mars
and Elvis, yes, and cars
i thought about you, too
how i'd love to roam the world
and be as one, curled
less lonely together
i didn't stop to ask whether
the idea was yours or mine
blue suede shoes are fine
but they're not meant for hiking
trails on an Andean slope
so pass me a rope.
