Time Displacement

I’d like to reach into my pocket 
And use all those wasted times of past displacements 
Stored there for just this momentous occasion 
A fatalistic fantasy for immortality. . .  
For I know that one day 
My time will run out 
But for now, I intend to keep on pocketing 
And using as I please 
I’ll let you know how it’s working 
When I’m two hundred and three
