I don’t know why I was thinking about you today,
Billy Mumy,
But I was.

I was just thinking about what a cute kid you were
and wondering what you’ve been up to since
Lost in Space got cancelled.

So I went to your website

Where I learned,
among other things,
That your last name is not pronounced “Mummy”
Like the sarcophagus.

But Moomy – like roomy, with an M.

Billy Moomy
What a gas!

I bet it bugs you when people call you Mummy.

Hey, remember the robot?

Danger, Will Robinson
Danger, danger!

What a gas!
