to be a very useful invention
to prevent everything from happening all at once.
Not all of us are skilled at multi-tasking
or slipping in and out of multiple awareness
:-)

the creation of time
has birthed the joy
and the angst
of anticipation
and the dread
of obliteration
yet one suspects
this exhilaration
and nervous tension
is found within
each feeling person
regardless of where
the hands of time
may lay at any moment.
thus time may as well
be seen as a static
entity... a sentinel
without colour or creed
and only laughs at
the flattery we give
by the power we
seem to it accord.
It potency lies in fact
that it remains when
all else has faded
quite timeless.

there was a plodder named Einstein
did a lot to define time's line
reached into his bag of tricks
discovered time was not fixed

Time accelerates as we turn old
due to reference I'm told
but almost halts with a sweet kiss
something here must be amiss

a watched clock will barely move
OK that's something I can't prove
yet 50 years can seem so short
a singe cell on time's huge wart

by the way I enjoyed this poem of yours loved..............scribbler

Here's a thought - time is movement ( protons, atoms, earth rotating around the sun. etc ) without movement would time exsist?

Just a quicky because I'm going out - I'll look you up latter.

Interesting subject, interesting poem.

I love the subject of time and space, ( that what come's of being a trekky ).lol My "time" is filled up with to much movement, I'm off out again in half an hour, I manage to snatch moments of time to read and sometimes comment. Lol

I loved your poem

Love Mand xxxxxx

Hey U.

Time was not relative, so to speak, until the *concept* (word) was spoken (whether by grunts, facial expressions or body movements, or great works that have been lost or kept for posterity) .

*Loved* I read you on occasion. For me the problem is that you submit so much and you use the blog for posting your poetry which is a tad underhanded...in essence thumbing your nose at the one-poem-per day. You do this time and time again.

;-D

So, I'll post my variation on the theme of time and words in a blog, too. You might read it or you might not.

hey U refers to a song by pink floyd.... one of my favourites.

Last Night
A car rolled passed me
on my right
on the expressway
last night
when I say rolled,
I do mean rolled
over on on its side,
over and over
the streelight that it hit
flailing at it
like some giant hand
as it rolled along
disintegrating.
In my car
doing sixty
I could see this rolling car
through my passenger window
on the right
like looking at clothing
tumbling
in a front-load drier
no farther away
than my outstretched hand
barely twelve inches from my car.
The velocity and momentum
the spinning of that car,
the downing of that streetlamp
are all of science,
of velocity, momentum,
friction and time;
my being untouched
by hurtling death
unlooked-for
from a racing car
behind me?
that's the gods
putting hands into my life
saying :Not yet, not yet."
Tell me,
which is better?

Time as we have made it, tic, tock, tic, tock, cannot be a dimension it is purely a man made thing for us to measure with, would you say a ruler is a dimension, or a jug with lines on to say how much liquid in, is a dimension.

Someone needs to rethink this measuring thing and separate it from reality.

The fourth dimension must be something along the lines of relative position, or some such thing we just cannot fathom (Using a 6 foot measure)...

Our minds are so small in the way 's of the whole universe and beyond that we have to make things with a limit, so that we can explain everyday things.
Life and our ultimate change is measured if we lived for ever there would be no need to measure a lifespan, and many other things we have created a dimension for..

Is there a parallel universe travelling alongside us, is there an after world where we revert back to an energy pattern, can our thoughts take our own energy through that portal to the afterlife, is there a pattern to it all ???

Where are the children and people I talk to, they say there is no time there where they are
And the whole thing is run by the energy and unconditional love ???

I have asked many questions of their ways and I am happy with the result and at the moment can't find the words to portray their ways with the feelings they give to me.
Maybe this is an impossible task but I will keep trying to write of them, or their place, but it changes as they think, what a concept, La La
Yours Ian.T

My Spirit friend Sadie was talking to me one day and I asked a question about someone. There was a delay, and then she came back with the answer.
I said to her, I thought that there was no time in her world.
She replied to me "I had to ask a few questions of others that's why there was a delay" and just laughed at my inability to understand about NO time.
I am going to that timeless zone called sleep now so enjoy the rest of your day it is only relevant to my sleep lol zzz Ian.T
