THE TIME OF MY LIFE

If I could travel back into times past

to see the truth of history and such,

I don’t think I would want my stay to last.

I simply couldn’t stand to stay there much.

The future, many generations hence,

would only make me want to return here.

Where once I had been sitting on the fence,

I’d come with sure decisions and no fear.

Historical or upcoming events

have consequence just in relation to

my verification or prescience,

and all I’d gain would be a greater view.

If time travel were possible somehow,

the most important time would still be now.

James Ph. Kotsybar's haiku achieved Martian orbit on September 22, 2014, becoming the first literature to another world, aboard NASA's MAVEN spacecraft. His poem, "Martian Connoisseur" has been circling the Red Planet for over 1,000 Earth days, however, Guinness Book of World Records, the Nobel Committee and Pulitzer Prize Directors have yet to weigh in on this record accomplishment. More information on MAVEN is available from https://mars.nasa.gov/maven/
