Moon-Pie Poetry? REALLY!

This sounds like a perfect topic for "Really! with Seth and Amy" a segment on SNL, however Amy is no longer on the show.
How more ridiculous can this Moon-Pie hoisting get? Councilman Clinton Johnson was so inspired by the event that he wrote a poem! How sweet!!! And I thought the whole leprechaun siting was the worst this city has seen.


"A Moon Pie Over Mobile, a sight for all to see,
"I stood in the crowd that night while thousands watched with me.
"A crane it took to hoist the pie, with lights flashing very bright,
"It startled all as they looked on this cold, cold New Year's night.
"Chattanooga Bakery was on the scene with the World's Largest Moon Pie,
"RC Cola was there as well, when the electric pie lit the sky.
"Mobile is now the City of Dreams, the Moon Pie confirmed this fact,
"I'll await this event next year, when the Mobile Moon Pie comes back.
"I commend you Mobile for this joyous event, don't let them steal your story,
"Keep raising your Moon Pie for years to come — watch the Moon Pie bring you glory!"
