if this spaceship is rocking

they've been

in space

for almost a year,

men

and women.

an attractive

and intelligent group

of astronauts

with good teeth

and good hair.

they eat, sleep, drink,

play games,

work

and think while

staring out the window

at a trillion stars.

but are they having sex

up there?

why did he bring cologne

and her

perfume and something

inflammable

but sheer?

who goes

a year without Betty

floating over

to have some monkey

business

in back of the space

station

where they store

pints of tequila

and liters of beer.
