At the Insection of Time and Space

In order
to be
at the restaurant
on time
I have invoked
a time travel mojo
on this taxicab
...
It's working

working

changing
red lights to green lights
removing
tottering doddering
pottering
pedestrians
from the corners
from the avenues
from the earth

rolling back
minutes
as the miles and the meter
roll up

if
now

right now

I am only ten minutes late
I am on time


in New York City
ten minutes
is only
ten minutes

twenty minutes
is
late

unless
I call the table
to say
I am in a taxi

a taxi


a well known
time machine
