Lunar sonata

weird music heard the radio

crew the moon through headsets

whether or not it was 1969

orbit out of radio contact

nobody can hear the public

knew everything the mission

went unexplained unsettling

music through the module

like they never heard space

that whistling hour

regained radio control

to think noise should be logic

if something recorded then

there was science

withhold the public in

the public’s interest

hear anything years

old memory making up something

you really know if you’re the moon

and hear weird noise from Earth

what could you think

tapes have been available

digital archives questioned

television told that incident

interference something other

who flew in space heard wonder

pin down proof different

transcripts and transmissions

check your correction

version this question

lost and declassified

sound these changes
