SPACE TOURISM - DISPATCH FROM COLONY EARTH
Saturday June 4, 2016
Greetings space-traveler, consider earth this summer:
Irrelevant ants. Colonies – like Hutterites, different work for males and females – looking alike, all differences simply rationalized – jeans to tuxedos, wonder-bras to wonder women …
Not fully connected yet. Every child born to every opportunity. Equal, wanting simple satisfaction – Andy Warhol and George Orwell would agree, trump card played, takes all.
Many complain – backlogged, goals unfulfilled, prizes unclaimed – incompleteness.
Their life would be better – if only.
If only, they’d done that thing. When they should have.
If only, they’d felt that feeling. When they could have.
If only, they’d dealt cards differently.
Take sunscreen.
