After Winning a Poetry Contest for the company "The Gap", I wrote a poem and performed it at their event. Enjoy!


The Gap on the Moon
by Judy Joy Jones

hear ye
hear ye

i proclaim
the gap
will be
on the moon
and all the other planets
we'll inhabit soon

lets see
will i buy my spacesuit
in red blue or green
an how bout
my mars trottin shoes
think ill buy the ones
in polka dotted hues

gonna be the first to wear
the gaps martian jeans
i bought half priced
when i landed on the moon

so put your derby
on top ya mop
yeah the one over there
you bought at the gap
on venus while
ya were there

hear ye
hear ye

i proclaim
the gap
will be on the moon
and all the other planets
we will inhabit
very very soon
