Time Travel


If time travel did exist, to what era would you go, Would you sneak away quietly, so nobody could know, Would you take with you your family or would you go alone, Would you go to see George Washington or visit the Flintstones, Or maybe it's ahead you'd go, the future you wish to see, In hopes that one day equality is real and everybody's free, But prepare yourself for anything when traveling the unknown, Could time travel distort your body or liquefy your bones, Would people from another time be waiting there for you, Would their weapons be drawn and ready to kill or do all they need to do, Or is it possible that with your arrival they'd prepare a feast to eat, And welcome you with open arms then offer you a seat, If time travel did exist and things went wrong, I guess you could go back, For to be in a time that isn't yours could cause the pressure to make you crack, But since time travel doesn't exist, that gives you time to think, Now close your eyes and visualize and try hard not to blink, Cause if you do time may pass an then you could be stuck, Just hope time travel does exist and pray you'll have good luck.
