Nobody has a use for poetry.
And that's precisely why we need it.

Time travel

[The given moment is now. Don't delay]



When people talk
or dream
about traveling to the past:

They worry about
radically
changing the present
by an act
ever so small
while being
in that past.

But barely anyone
in the present
really thinks
they can
radically
change the future
by doing something
small
now.

Time travelers
to the past
have an unfair
advantage
of certainty
what will happen
if they don’t act.
