Data Patch

A patch of data came my way Time stamped from yesterday Some bits suggest it is true My mail insists that it is new So what do I know It is a letter to me and it has A message for me from the past It's subject has great appeal But before I break the sacred seal What do I know Is it virus or is it trojan How do I know where it's been Am I on a salesman's list Or has it been hacker kissed What do I know Despite the titles wit I don't remember writing it The moment of truth comes to call I don't remember yesterday at all So what do I know Opening it I smiled as I read Just remembering in my head "From past me, I wanted to say To the future me,... happy birthday" What do you know
