Time Traveller

Time Traveller

He was there from day one, Eden an' all,
parting of the Red Sea, swarms of locusts;
someone rose from their bed and walked again,
notices on doors, first born babies in pain.

What about blacks and whites - what happened?
It was a curse - people didn't behave, so split,
not that it made much difference, still shit,
still arguments, all those slaves, hair in waves.

'Did the flood really happen?' 'Yes, it did,
there were two of us on board but the other
guy was made redundant, he just ran out of time,
not like mine, I can still tell you it wasn't bullshit.'

Finally, Trump was asked to build himself a boat,
but no one cared if he managed to find land or not.

Couldn't do a better comment than Tony on this one, no not in the slightest. I agree with everything he says. So very layered and complex must have taken ages to compose. Kind regards. TFOTS

Hi TFOTS,
Thanks so much -
not too difficult when you think of
the mass of subject matter over
thousands of years.
Regards,
Terry.
