And so, the lazy clocky hands , are moving again in this frantic un-controlled dance towards infinity of time, thereby dictating to us, the mere mortals, when to perform certain duties, like eating, cooking, or snow -shoveling.
The Mystery of time had escaped many brilliant minds , and wrecked havoc on other ones. No0one seems to be able to manipulate time , stop it, accelerate it, or do anything to it that nature intended not to.
And so, in this manner the clock is rationing the remainder of the hours, dissecting them to pieces , like the throat of that poor chicken-dinner.
Time for you , is not necessarily , time for me. Who's to say that a passing hour for me feels the same as a passing hour for YOU?
Thomas Mann in his now famous "Zauber-berg" has written a whole chapter of how the time "toys" with us, and how it is actually not a steady component, but rather a tricky ,sophisticated tool that is not always ticking the same way for all. Those timely thoughts were brought to you by the laughing time company!
Good night, knight of the night!
