Revisionist history
another way of saying

What I would change if I could,
what would any of us change?

Me, with my time machine, and a checklist-
How many events would I edit?

You, both then and now,
urging caution, wincing at the consequences

I would be pre and postmodern artist
more spraypaint than oil
working on an infinite canvas

It might be years
before you realize I have altered your landscape
or seconds


title from go ahead I'll listen
