Everything will be arranged beforehand
bleep messages, triply repeated,
reminding to take passport, tickets,
suntan lotion, hat, stomach-through-flow pills,
for both stopping and making you go,
sunglasses, health and accident
insurance,
a change of underwear made of the right material
for both tropical and temperate climates.
There will be help with luggage,
massage to and from the airports;
a satellite navigation system will ensure that
you do not stray into territory inhabited by locals;
the restaurants and food will be similar to what
you are used to at home,
but tweaked to seem authentic and exotic,
but never too singular.
Protection from natural sounds and smells
will be provided via devices conveying signals
to olfactory and auditory receptors,
so there will be no feelings of strangeness
in unfamiliar lands;
masks for the whole face will be distributed
to alleviate fear of catching diseases
that might affect you for as long as two days.
