this is great! I love the subject matter and you handled it expertly. The internal rhymes were almost unnoticed, which is a good thing. I know that you and that <i>other</i> person blame me for being the nefarious anon, but it's not me.
I like your poetry and this one is one of your best. I especially like the ref to the red tape reaching so far. well done!
I'm showing my age here, but I just couldn't get William Shatner nor Mick Jagger out of my mind. So I gave up, read it again and laughed and read it again and laughed. I so enjoyed your imagination here.
not one of you best. You should write what you know, that makes better reading then making it up as you go along.
In some respects puts a more real view on such a life than either Sci-Fi stories or the exhibits in museums. Got to thinking - couldn't have a phone conversation but email/internet should be fine. Most likely next reader of my feedback will read it later than a 1-way earth-mars radio message (several minutes) would take.
