I have finally worked out the point
of space travel, it was far from clear.
What up to now has been scientific endeavour
will for a rich elite become the destination du jour
which will become a tax loss for everyone else to live for.
After that the more covert future of the Moon
is that it is going to be less of a place to go,
and more an abstract destination for the profits
of multi-national corporations
There accountants will breathe purer air
and give themselves charisma,
whilst on earth lawyers will define the moon
as the place of residence for the corporations
whose technology transforms our lives
-but the residency is only for tax purposes.
Lawyers will state with stately gravitas
that since gravity is like tax-
both hold people and collective endeavour back-
then their clients reserve the right to have less of either.
Yes! The Moon is set to be the elite corporate tax haven.
