Ole Rocky Raccoon was shot to the moon and blew out half the city lights.

Went out for a stroll, climbed up on a pole, and suddenly was projected into flight.

Some saw this ball of fire shooting up the sky and asked, “Is it a terrorist attack?”

The town was abuzz, wondering what had occured and when would the power be back.

Only Rocky will know what set him aglow, why he messed with those high-powered volts.

But many will remember that cold Sunday night, when ole Rocky entertained the Natchez folks.
