Apparently even man's spectacular conquest of the moon has a slight touch of nostalgia. - Because now comes the question, Midi happens to one of the great inspirations of poets and songwriters now that man's technology has unveiled the rnoon as nothing more than a pock-marked wasteland of rocks and craters? "The mystery of the moon is gone." laments one such man, Robert F. Lima, poet, critic, and associate professor of Spanish and Comparative Literature. "To the poet, the invasion of the moon is something like having a celestial joke played on him. For ages and a;.ies. he has written about the moon in song and verse:, linking her to love and fantasy, majesty and divinity; yet, suddenly, he finds THOUGH HE MAY be a bit premature, Robert F. Lima says today's contemporary poet might have a better view of the Earth by seeing it and writing about it from the moon. 7, 1 WiNS- I , * • VV4 .4gl 'P • .• With a Chilled Nivg ef Etrci A Combination Mat's Eccame TratTlan Pop s .Mexi-I-lot on College Avenue, next to Keeler's • (77-n t..)• 1,;( VA) irouctto" by 'toe bffs.tss-z;;;.:t For the first time and just in time for you, diamond rings ore blossoming into something as fresh and extraordinety as the feeling of being engaged.

Lima says today's pact will have to relate to the moon in ways quite niiierent from those of the past. "He may either completely ignore the moon, start making light of her as one more :ibsurcinv in Inan ' s Ide, or try to create a ni , o-romantic image of life there, n,ayhe oven ex claiming: 'Long live man on the moon!'" the prolessar sug goals. "It. could be that the Apollo mission. cle:soite its put eiv technological achievement, may inspire the tirst real epic poem of modern literature. In recent u•nturscs there hasn't been a subject big enough or worthy enough for epic con sideration. Ceitamly the landing by man on the moon generates the excitement and ape necessary for such inspira 1: on." But the day of the moon as a romantic. Luna maintains. "Frank Smatra's 'Fly INIe To The _Moon' could «011 be the \Tr. , last romantic song w: Men about the moon," he says. "The songwriters of today will halve to change their style. They can't romanticize about the moon ,alymore, hvf,ziu the mystery has been explained and it , exotic aspect deliur<ed. When you know what something'; about, it loses its apeeH." As for the poet, Lima expects many may chno-o to ignore the moon completely because its anon-,n'; rote in .1.. - )ace ex ploration has made It El Slepp3ll. - 4-stone for c hat cone call nu , . m; society, a new symbol for celowzation and e\- pleitat,on. "Even before the advent of the space prr Lt o . even before projects like Vanguard. Ger - 113m and Apollo were heard of, modern day poets began trending away from the romant'c image of the moon," Libia point, oat.
