Science - Time Travel Poem by Paul Warren

Science - Time Travel



They say you can go forward
But the theory says not backward
You have to get ahead of the light
Then into the future to go you might

So the pictures of the cool dude in sunglasses
At the bridge opening in the forties doesn't pass as is
Nor the lady at the Chaplin film in the twenties opening
Walking using the mobile phone talking

So Marty McFly may be using the hover board floating
But Biff will not be using the almanac in the past betting
It is so disappointing in the end for me
Not to be able to see past history to be

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I was reading about the theory of time travel. It seems that the speed of light is the critical factor. If you can get ahead of the light ie fast than the speed of light then you will get to a position ahead of the present and so time travel. Anyway interesting concept.
