[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
