In 100 Years
In 100 Years
In 2118 will there still be love
as we ride in driverless cars?
We will have used the Earth all up
for real estate on Mars.
In 2118 will there still be war
when all cancer can be cured,
medical miracles not known before
with a longer life assured.
In 2118 will McDonald’s still be
a familiar face to the world,
or will the new trade wind economy
make the American Dream unfurl.
In 100 years will the land be here?
Clean water will cost a lot.
Can we then relax and live in less fear?
Maybe so and maybe not.
