troubled times

If troubles passed as quick as time;
rather would we have a few;
every thought came out as rhyme,
there'd be little to do.....

Imagine if just for a moment ,
and it that time it took;
you could change direction,
and rewrite your whole book ....

you could never look back at the past ,
nor wish to ever change it;
because it would have been cast,
it'd be just us that'd known it.....

No news , or hyped up media;
do you remember from the past,
we sat all as a family ,
to watch the local cast .....

Myspace was a beginning,
I thought I was to be ,
 a bright and burning star ;
the whole world there to see.....

The internet has evolved , 
that dial up sound is gone,
through it all even though;
I hear" get off my ing lawn ......
