Time Travel to the Outskirts of Words


9.5 Tick-Tock Tractatus

Time Travel to the Outskirts of Words

     Objects are Intertwined:
Inter-breeding like space and time
Inter-acting like brain and mind
Inter-relating like the drummer and the band
Inter-locking like fingers and hand

     Time is Objectified:
Counted, tallied, recorded, traded;
     Clock hands moving, telling time;
     Carrion bells singing hours at nine---
Time eats everything; Objects dissolve.

     Time is Personified:
Grim Reaper, Stork Baby, Dorian Gray;
     Talking Time Machines, Killer Shark AI;
Old man with a crooked gray cane;
     Eternal Goddess in a perfectly lazy Sky.

     We travel via Time:
All the time, consistently, logically,
Relentlessly, unavoidably, inexorably...
     But, realistically--- Entropy ---
     Closes the Past with a slap!

^^ We Only Travel in Time in the Now ^^

Words, thankfully, are Free
To thumb their noses at reality
To toss time-places-people randomly a'round
To invent a Supreme Fiction for us to See---
To create a timeless Heaven for Eternity.
