Used Time Machine for Sale
Becky Boban
Over nineteen million hours on it. Sand from Normandy
still on the seats. Transmission good, steering good, right front
headlight punched out by Bucephalus’ hoof. Ash from Pompeii
melted onto the body. Bullet hole spider-webbed in the back
window from the shot heard round the world. Used to keep
dinner warm, save the cat from being run over, visit Joel
before he died in prison, and family vacations to the Chicago
Columbian Exposition. Radio works from 1921 on. Gear shift
stuck in reverse. Price is negotiable. Please do not contact me
with any unsolicited services.
