[Postcard 3: I go out for walks when I can. Try peeing in a space suit sometime. *gigglefit*]

Citizens of Mars are allowed one postcard a month

Part of the package, the plan

One-way ticket to a pilgrim planet

All she could afford.

Citizens of Earth have no stamps for Mars.

I never wrote her back.

Mostly I pretended she was dead.

Like she said.

— C.S.E. Cooney, from poem Postcards From Mars
