Time

Zone one:

Ok so what is time?

Many timepieces we have 

to help us to keep everything in focus

But why the need for order?

Is there a point where it dissolves?

Only time will tell or so they say

Well, the end of our lives is unknown

and unpredictable and so…

Zone two:

To be ruled by measures of time seems feeble

Surely a better life lies without time constraints?

Outside of time?

There’s so much that we don’t understand

Forces and powers beyond all comprehension

Glimpsing into the darkness lies a world

where the light is only seen

by those who actually look for it.

Indeed, it just makes my brain hurt thinking about it!

Ok, here's my take on time.
There isn't any such "thing".
It doesn't exist.
I don't care what Professor Georgeous Guy wotsit sez on telly.

Time is the feeling I get in my brain between my pint dissappearing through the hole in the top of my glass, and it filling up again, which it does in NO TIME at all....thanks to Emmanuelle, Emeritus Professor at the University of Life!
