i might have written a poem yesterday.

There was a time before you.
There was a time before me.
There once was a time before cars and microwaves and iPods.
There was, hard as it is to believe, a time before Diet Coke.
There was a time before smog, a time before cities, a time before Big Oil.
There was a time before you.
There was a time before me.
There was, and I remember it, a time before honey-mustard dressing.
There was a time before.
There was a time.
There was.
