The Future

by Jane Edwards aged 15

Humans? What ho!
They expired long ago
It’s robots now
and don’t-you-know
we need no car if we want to go
to the beach?
What’s that you preach?
They are a figment of the past
like trees and oxygen
never to last.
Now, now, don’t look so very glum!
Our amusements are heaps more fun!
By techslide, portal, even screen
you can visit any scene
hover-park, museum , friends on Mars
or perhaps you like more exotic stars?
So roll up, roll up!
ditch that out-dated past
because the future, man,
it’s really a blast!
