one day you will
walk in their shoes
technology will enable you, more than
holographically, to be anyone, anytime
replay historical events
with you in the leading role
costume, makeup, sound, lights, music
action – the real thing
make the discovery, explore new lands
ride the wild horse in the wind, be the hero
wear the crown, sail the space ship spinning
through crack flashing bright lights of time
accept the award in front of the masses
take the bow, receive the honor
it’s the winning ticket
ladies and gentlemen, some day
right now splash cold water on your face
wake up, get ready, eat a half-ass breakfast
it’s morning, get moving
later you will fold back into dream

There are science fiction books written about this concept, as cautionary tales!
