In the Year 3030

In the year 3030
Time travel is what some like to say
a common convenient conveyance.
And is sold like Air travel or Train fair.
Seeing that most people have cars that fly.
For some time travel is considered 
to be a matter of entertainment.
Like going to a theme park.
Only we don’t close after dark.
There are a few companies 
That provide these forms 
of entertainment.
This is but one of many infomercials.

Here at EON 
there’s no time like 
the past, present or future.
Let us take you, 
where you want to go!
On or off planet.

EON...
A Personal time travel company.
Take time, to travel in time.
Here at Eon 
We can take you 
where you want to go 
when you want to go.
Enjoying your involvement 
in future activities.
But by law, trips to the pass 
are observation only. 
You cannot interfere 
meaning you cannot change 
the past, Period. 
If something happened 
an inconvenience,
You lost money 
or you lost the fight.
You cannot change the past,
your life, or that of a family member’s. 
As much as it pains us.
You cannot travel to the future 
to get a cure for some
Infectious disease,
that a family member died from.
We’re sorry...

But here at EON,
You can see how your parents 
Or grandparents met.
With the option of 
time lapse time travel,
you can even watch 
your parents grow up.
And since you have the time,
you can travel back 
through your entire family line.
In our time travel facilities 
we can take you anywhere 
you need to go, 
and have you there 
when you need to be there.
On or off planet.

When you’ve had enough,
and seen enough.
we can bring you back 
at the push of a button.
Our time travel Facilities 
are just as comfortable 
as sitting at home in your living room.
For anyone traveling to the past,
We even have a remote control.
Here at Eon we can give you the option
of sending you in holographic form.
that’s right you can be 
Projected like a hologram 
and watch everything 
as it takes place.
No one will see you.
All part of the EON 
personal Time travel experience.
And since we now live on 
The Moon, Mars and few Asteroids,
The sky is no longer the limit.
We can even let you have a replay 
of an Athletic or Historic event.
Now for those of you 
with the idea of traveling 
to the future just so you can get 
the local lottery numbers. 
We are sorry, 
we can’t let you do that,
for that to, is an attempt to change the past. 
And that is against the law 
of time travel.
There is a time travel enforcement bureau.
And they really keep track of time.
It’s called Decades and of course 
it’s run by our planetary government. 
Because Uncle Sam always has time, 
to keep time in line.
A decades time enforcement team
will show up and correct 
any time discrepancies.
Here at Eon,
we won’t lose track of time
You can travel to near infinity
We have an automatic timer 
set to bring you back.
That is for those of you 
Who have a habit, 
of getting lost in time.
EON...
A Personal time travel company
