The Tomorrow that Never Was

By 2015, we would hover down roads.
We'd cure cancer, AIDS, and fix the Ozone.
Wearing iridescent clothing and inflatable shoes,
In the world of tomorrow, your dreams could come true.

Robots would take over hard labor and people would be free.
We'd invent new sports, involving amazing technologies.
We'd have virtual, not augmented, reality.
A true holographic television, not stereoscopic gimmickry.

We'd explore distant planets and head out into space.
We'd colonize moons and spread out our race.
New worlds and life forms would be our sight seeing.
And we'd never have been content with voyeuristically living.
