Picture The Future

/

A human brain, small enough 

To be held in our hands

Houses imagination capable of

Producing endless ideas

Creating novel things

Picturing the future

 

From Einstein’s relativity

To Picasso paintings

From stone-tipped weapons

To nuclear bombs

From cars to spaceships

All are products of 

Human imagination


Time allows us to evolve 

From our apelike ancestors 

Our creativity grants us 

The modernization

Of human history


Based on previous inventions

Our ingenuity continues 

To push us to invent things

More and more 

Sophisticated and powerful 


It gives me a chill 

To conjecture

What our imagination

Will lead us to
