and it’s the only one
no sooner had I started it
it was already done
It cost a lot to build it
but I put it all on credit
every time the bill comes due
I go back and forget it
How long it took, it’s hard to say
built on time I had to borrow
I started it a week from today
and finished it tomorrow
Because time travels in a line
you have to journey quickly
I can move ahead just fine
but backwards leaves me sickly
“Is there a way to prove it works?”
Why yes, I’m glad you asked
the poem that you are reading now
was written in the past
love your metaphor, smart poetry.
