Gather the distant world close; let its lanes carry countries to you.
Thursday keeps your ruling planet Mars firing the horizons zone, Scorpio, the pull toward far places strong though the road is not fully open. Gather the distant world close instead. Visit the vast import bazaar across town and let its lanes carry the countries to you. Thread through the goods, the spices, the languages, and pick one thing whose origin you have to look up. Press the trader on where it first came from. Mars wants the real story, so take the whole of it. You head home with a piece of somewhere far in hand, the outing squared by a morning that crossed borders through goods and talk instead of miles.
