Time and Again


Where are the time travelers, everyone asks,
We are here! Everywhere!
What makes you think you would remember
the way life was before all the changes?
Every change propagates futureward,
why, you'll never know that until two seconds ago,
Hitler died in the first world war,
that until two minutes ago, Donald Trump
went to prison for 30 years for child abuse,
that until five minutes ago, World War III,
immediately followed by World War IV,
missed destroying all life on earth
by that much,
and that until 20 minutes ago, "Get Smart"
was canceled after less than half a season.
