It’s amazing to me
before flat screens
before smart phones
before AI
before women we’re even allowed to
man walked on the moon
now fifty years later
the first woman
is on a moon mission
she’s blessed it
honored the Goddess
gazed on her face
and have paved the way
for other women
to follow in her footsteps
maybe a woman
will walk on the moon
next time

Golf Course in Outer Space
I had a dream my dad went to live
at a golf course on the moon
and the only reason he went
was because my uncle told him to
there was a constant summer sun
in a long, flat expanse of green
a domed space that went on forever
and the people there were mean
I knew he was uncomfortable
I could see it in his face
because for some reason, I went with him
to this golf course in outer space
Because I thought we could use some silliness this month. And I’ve started this thing where I write poems of actual dreams I’ve had. This poem made my Dad laugh.
It has been soo cold. January is kicking my butt physically and mentally, and I just have to endure. I can make it through. The new presidency has me super depressed, so I am just going to read. How many books can I make it through? I am currently reading four…two audio books and two other books. A memoir, a YA science fiction adventure, an urban fantasy, and an epic fantasy romance. Variety is the spice of life. Maybe I should throw another genre in there.
