The Time Traveler Limericks

There once was a Time Traveler

Who through time ran sensibler

For when in the future

Got back like a vulture

Making money as a fortuneteller

Just something I cooked up while thinking about how to progress on a particularly tricky part of my latest story. I can not vouch for the quality of these poems, it is my first time trying my hand at limerick, after all. But it is something to fill the void while I finish my latest story, I guess. Here’s a variant: 

There’s a man who with time messes

Of the future never confesses

For when in the past

Shifts the facts so fast

It changes the whole of the verses.
