TIME MACHINE

A Poem by WEIGHWITHWORDS

TRUTH HAS VERSIONS...AND THIS IS MINE

I AM WHAT USED TO BE

I AM WHAT'S RELEVANT

AND ALL THAT WILL EVENTUALLY UNRAVEL

I AM MODERN DAY TIME TRAVEL.

COMMERCIALS

ARE REHERSALS

OF ME-

IN MY NATURAL HABITAT

OF ME BEING REALITY

OF ME BEING FACT.

INTERNET SURF

AND YOU'LL FIND ME ON THE WEB PAGES

IN MULTIPLE PHASES

THIS NEW GENERATION

IS NEW MOTIVATION

WE DARE

TO TAKE IT THERE

WE'RE HIP

WE'RE COOL

WE'RE FRESH

IT'S TIGHT

IT'S RIGHT

IT'S DEF

THERE'S NOTHING SIMPLISTIC

ABOUT BEING ARTISTIC

AND YOU CAN TRAVEL BACK IN TIME

JUST IN CASE YOU'VE MISSED IT

AND YOU'LL SEE

HOW I'VE REINVENTED ME

GOING BACK AND FORGING AHEAD

FOR CENTURIES.

Back in time, without a doubt. Your first stanza is magnificent. Commercials as rehearsals? I don't get it. Reinvented! Absolutely, with every new discovery. But, the future - unpredictable, unexpected, twists and turns in its own way. Didn't give us a clue. Who expected Fukushima? Napoleon or Alexander? Ice ages, Chicxulub, Tunguska, 911? Make your predictions and keep on evolving. Time has a mind of its own.
Meanwhile, an old world is dying. Another is being born. So, step right up and jump right in. Keep forging ahead, for centuries.
