The Time Machine

The Time Machine

Well I'm BACK! Two Thousand Seventeen.
I been in England, And seen the young Queen.
I returned to my nest, a week before I left.
To duplicate my act, And the look that I kept.
***************************************************
My dog missed me:( Knew I was gone too long.
My Wife noticed,...That something was wrong:0
My walk was slower, My voice was lower.
Was rusty at work,...(blamed it on a hang over)
**************************************************
Life was great! In Nineteen Fortynine.
Truman was President. We had a great time!
The War was over, Was seldom sober.
My favorite Month, Was the Month of October.
*************************************************
Faster than you, could produce a tear.
I lived it up, for a two fullΒ years.
The age ofΒ Jive, Took many test drives,
And was amazed by the sound, of RCA's 45s.
**********************************************
Want a time machine? Well don't you fret!
You have one too! AKA the Internet.
Explore the crimes, Read old rhymes.
Waste no more time, Do research on-line!
********************************************

Quixotic.

Mercury 2nd 12th Month 2017

Liked the films starring Stanley Baker and then Guy Pearce. This is a fitting tribute to the book and those movies also showcasing your talents as a poet !

Sumptuous inventive creation. Well written.

Thank you Hardrocklover, Are you a fan of Neil Perts lyrics Β "Red Barchetta" of Rush?

It is my favorite song from the band. I loved how he wrote of the future and the rebellious spirit of man vs the machine.
