Weena
I return to the future, and the world of the Eloi.
I hope to build a new world with each girl and boy.
My machine is now outside the sphinx of the Morlocks.
I cannot see the rapidly moving hands of the clocks.
Weena and her people are free from the cannibals underground.
I want to lead them forward in this independence they have found.
With the knowledge I bring, the Eloi can achieve progress.
The love I have for Weena will bring me true happiness.
Based on the 1960 film “The Time Machine”
