future developments: a limerick.

Posted on 23 August 2016 by what sandra thinks

When I was younger, my family and I would talk
About what we thought the future might unlock
Sure, we’ve got lots of tiny tech
Digital music replaced the tape deck
But I still want to know… Where are the moving sidewalks?

Jetsons.

About what sandra thinks

Sandra is a writer, sometimes blogger, poet, artist, emotional disaster. She thinks far too much and sleeps far too little. Sandra lives in the Northeastern U.S. but dreams of an oceanfront home in Italy, but she would settle for a non-oceanfront home in Italy. She loves books, brutal honesty, coffee, and the color black. She hates insincerity, beer, whipped cream, and facebook. And she is uncomfortable talking about herself in the third person.
