50-cent box top time machine
stuck repeating last Wednesday
the day I threw up in Jennifer Smith's hair
forever

How far must I have gone before the chronostat kicked in? The Moo, has almost no craters and the Earth isn't blue yet. There won't be any local repair shops to help fix this piece of junk. I knew buying a used time machine was a bad idea. I should have bought the 4 billion year warranty.

The Only Time Machine


We upload your consciousness,
it runs in a simulated 1960s Lagos,
the quaint elder city;
but it's totally cool!
OK, it runs slowly,
and it's grainy (a few details are lacking),
but the Uploaded never notice; they lack detail too.

Your body is destroyed in the process,
but it's immortality; don't worry,
we keep you backed up,
we have uninterruptible power supplies,
backups on our backups,
real-time monitoring of conditions on the drive,
and if you do get corrupted,
you never know it!

It's the perfect existence,
and the only way to go back in time.

Yes, Lagos-60sis the best and only,
although I hear someone is about to launch
a goth sim called Bombardment 1851,
which is supposed to really rock,
if you're into that sort of thing;
but, for a small fee,
we can make a copy of you for that platform,
to upload when they go live.

Wells' machine was just the first

C 22, travelers were hopping
like fleas on a hot griddle

the whip of time, that snake
rippled and reformed
like nobody's business

reality seethed

unlicensed changes
egg-beaten memories

the Cats put a stop
let us live, of course
 no cat works for a living

The Time Machine materialized in Sadie's dining room, crushing four settings of her grandmother's china and a chocolate cake from Publix. It also gave her saintly aunt Addie May a near-fatal heart attack. Sadie started firing as soon as the hatch swung open. Under the circumstances, the judge ruled justifiable homicide, even though it wasn't an open-carry state.
