What If You Broke Every Law of Physics

I closed my eyes to break all the laws,
All the laws of physics and natural philosophy. 
I wanted to travel faster than light, 
Go back hundreds of years, and do it with no technology.
I closed my eyes and talked gravity with Newton,
Talked about spectrums, inertia, and calculus.
We ate an apple at Trinity, dressed in grand blue and red robes
That were beautiful, noble and fabulous.

But then I thought about how neat this power was, 
To travel, meeting whomever in any old year. 
So I went back further, eyes closed tight, to 1601,
And talked about Hamlet with William Shakespeare.
I asked “Why does he drag his feet so long, 
So long to avenge his father’s killer?”
He picked up a beer and idly said “He had bipolared ego,
Besides, I needed to write a thriller.”

Then I thought of other rules I could break, 
So I travelled to the middle of the deepest black hole.
It was amazingly theatrical, the swirling bright everything, 
It most certainly had its own soul.
Then I was in an alternate universe, 
With an earth, a moon and a sun.
And on this planet sweet love, it was everywhere,
Enough love for you, and me, and everyone.

If breaking laws of physics leads to love, joy and happiness,
And millions of crazy butterflies.
Then I think I might enjoy travelling more often,
Just doing it by closing my eyes.
