My Poem “Beam Me Up!” (2016)

Especially for Star Trek Day, I made a video for my 2016 poem “Beam Me Up!” – which I originally wrote to celebrate the Star Trek’s 50th anniversary – which I have slightly modified so that it could also serve as a celebration for Star Trek’s 60th anniversary – and it was great to be able to include some photos from recent Destination conventions to illustrate what Star Trek means to me and to so many of my friends. Live long and prosper! 😊🖖

In this episode Mark wishes a very happy birthday to his favourite television series and film franchise: ‘Star Trek’, created by Gene Roddenberry, which premiered on the U.S. television station NBC on September 8, 1966, which has boldly grown to become a cultural phenomenon all around the world. Mark talks about what “Star Trek” means to him and what it is about the franchise that has kept him a fan of it since he was a child. And Mark also recites his poem “Beam me up!”. Live Long and Prosper! 🖖
