Things We Learned
We had a lot to figure outWhen first we went to space
Like how to bounce down hallways with
A modicum of grace
To use a vacuum toilet or
To drink soup from a tube,
Or to kick off walls and ceilings
Not looking like a newb.
We had to learn somehow to sleep
While tethered to a wall.
And how to rinse the shampoo out
When water would not fall.
There is one thing we surely learned,
And all there would agree,
Childbirth, it seems should not be tried
In zero gravity!
