Welcome to Truthful Tuesday, a prompt originally set by PCGuyIV, covered by Melanie and now hosted by Di at Pensitivity101 until PCGuy1V wants to take it back.
This week’s question is: Would you like to go up in to space?
Hell yes! I wish!
I want to fly a star fighter I want Starbuck’s uniform.
I wanted to fight the Cylons watch their ships in flames over Orion at dawn.
I wanted to fly beyond the speed of light, and curse swear and fight.
I wanted to play cards and drink into the night. I wanted to straith the Cylon’s rebirthing ship with diagonal fire.
To wipe them out is my heart’s desire.
I wanted to argue with my superiors and blow smoke in their faces.
I can do their jobs and be in two places.
I need to lead a fleet of earnest pilots who would follow me to their death.
They would be my responsibility and I would protect them with my final breath.
I would never let them know that, though, I’d need to be aloof and mean,
Yes even if I loved them so, I’d not let that be seen.
I’d be so cool
I would love to look sexy in my vest and flight suit minus my top.
I would love to excited the lads and bop bop bop!
I’d be happy teaching flight techniques and how fire missiles and cannon and just how to stop a Centurion with a strategic oil leak!
I would make your hair stand on end and your face truly blush
With the expletives designed to crush.
I would love to be the one who held the whole planet’s lives with in my hands,
Even if at first I had no idea that I was part of the gods secret plans.
I would take it on the chin to come back from the dead to everyone’s delight.
To start again immediately just jurn me round I’d fight.
It’s true I like a drink, gambling and like a good cigar.
I’m damn good in bed I’ll sort you out what ever rank you are!
I am the best pilot as I have said before
I shall find the Cylon’s mothership and give the frackers what for!
I’ll rip the skin off Number Six and I’ll show her no quarter.
She beat the living crap out of me and then denied me even water.
I’ll lead you all to safety find you all another world
For I am really an angel that keeps her wings tight furled!
I am that star you see at night when it is darkest before the dawn.
I am the one who will shoot straightest so none of you need be forlorn.
I am the mighty Starbuck , Kara Thrace is my real name .
But what ever you call me I shall save you all the fracking same!
Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Eleven years ago I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " not quite but with the help of a walking stick and as long as I do not stand or sit in one position for too long, I am still standing! Update I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust, I will of been married 50yrs plus this year . Pain and boredom are my enemies now, I have to find different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and
hopefully in to light ??
I need to update this a little here. I have worked very hard over the years since my accident, I go to the gym regularly, I have a Pilates class and a core class once a week . The guys at the gym and my Pilates teacher cajoled, teased, bullied and encouraged me to abandon my walking stick! :) My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and as strongly as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

As poets we’d probaby end up on a Vogon transporter with fish in our ears and a towel.
Oh! No not Vogon poetry anything but ! Please 🙏🙏
Zaphod will sort it out xx
Or even Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz of the Galactic Hyperspace Planning Council😭

Great response Willow, and how better to finish than with Sam. He has a feel good factor of 1000 with me.
And me too he’s just great 😃
Wonderful, and such a terrific GENUINE personality.
Yes I’d love to meet him 😄
I think I would too.

Yes, I think I would want to go into space but only if I’m in a deep sleep at lift-off! I’d like to wake up when it’s safe to do so.
Ah! Cryogenics …. What about landing? Well if you’re up there in your first class suite I will be the starfighter buzzing your cruiser!
Suites me fine 🙂
