James – fellow panelist

There’s a small lunar crater called Hell
Into which a poor astronaut fell.
It was all full of dust
So his space suit got mussed
And the vacuum smothered his yell.

A genius, Arthur C. Clarke,
Took a stroll through a Sri Lankan park.
I joined him for tea
To his very great glee
When I hung on his every remark.
