It stopped
Right angled
To time
Linear
A universe
In one stop
Sliced through thought
Through the inconceivable
Beyond the curves
Into certain predictions
Of the next
Predetermined moments
As solid
As the past is unchangeable
The future fixed
In the knowledge of
Quantum certainties
Time perceived
A universal illusion
Count me in! Dare I presume re-assemblage of parts at the end, basically in the same order? And if not, what an excellent subject to consider.

Hi Ray,
A very slippery nature of a subject,and as you say we can indulge
So I think you I and Stu should get our coats on and nip over to the hadron collider and see if they will shoot us round a few times and see what happens. Cynthia,Rose,C?l and Fred welcome too. lol
Impressively different and challenging Des. In view of the slippery nature of the subject we can be indulged endlessly which gives it a certain charm and relevance to other kindred matters. Blimey, i'll get me coat!
Ray
science and poetry collide, as if shot together in the large hadron collider, creating something beautiful and crisp.

Terrific. Well-thought and very well-constructed.

Look like it’s just you and I for the hadron Cynthia..sorry but no guarantee on re-assemblage. I think that’s why the others chickend out. Could be curious though.
All the best Des
