If you're not going to pay attention
To the Space-Time Continuum
Than neither shall I
Who cares about rules?
We can travel through the galaxies
Fly hundreds of miles past the stars
Touch the rays of the sunlight
Feel the cold of the darkest planet shade
We can travel through time
Looking for eras long since gone
And those yet to come
We can meet the dinosaurs
Have tea with Agatha Christie
Learn all about William Shakespeare
Even discover something new in history
We can have a picnic on the moon
Or risk our lives surfing a black hole
Listening to the quiet of the blindingly big space
Gaze at all of it's beauty
Fall on our backs, watching it all
Simply grow, live, flourish and fall around us
So much beauty
So much wonder
So much light
So, really. Let's be honest.
If you're not going to pay attention
To the Space-Time Continuum
Than neither shall I.
Let's go see time and space
Live a little through the ages
And see all the beauty the world has to offer.
After all, life is so very, very short.
Unless...of course
You have a time machine.
