My Present Future

cafe 80s

wait for me

don't look at anything

you might see

afraid of the future

what does it hold

tempting to peek

answers I seek

what do I find

an old car to shine

the beaten byway

aspirations,

winding away.

but where's the fairway

I've gone astray

precise reactions

avert distractions

oh there it is

my timeline street

written

rewind

review

repeat

start again

time will bend

a crack in the memory

a chance to amend

time will erase

the DMC-12s pace

forethought taken

a mysteries a mak'n

Ah! Let's give our kudos

to "great scott"

now,

can you

discover the plot

or have you forgot,

that it only takes 1.21 gigawatts

~Jessi (Poem)
