Time is a
sociological, cultural, and anthropological litmus test
Time is a sociological, cultural, and anthrpological litmus
test effectively used to evaluate the cultural building blocks of a
society.
But time, seems to have the rather inconvenient
characteristic of not wanting to stop, so for all of you so seriously litmusing
and testing societal blocks to find out what time it is, best not to pause or
lest you be left behind as time so indignantly waits for no
"man".
Which leads me to believe that if you truly want to
understand time, your efforts may be most productively applied to subjects for
whom time does wait. And we can pretend
that these anti-pendulous scoffers of sensorial narrative units don't exist,
but now who’s being naive?
So let’s all close our eyes and each draw up a mental list
of those things of which we know, that are neither concerned with time, nor
impacted by it. And no, I am not
accepting answers which include concepts like "Timeless Beauty",
which is probably the most poorly named manifestation of universal
progression....Hell, even the concept's name is derived from that construct
from which it is claimed to be infinitely extracted from. "Timelessness" is a word.
And I really ought to simply leave it at that because any
qualifier associated with it, even the seemingly nonsensical (e.g. Timeless
Treasure perhaps? is just so plainly a
reference to a far from chronologically ambivalent substance held in high
regard by a temporary collective that clearly has the poor-boys half of the
equation smudged out on the back of his coal shovel, while it apparently
requires a large stone structure with windows, a quorum of some order often
identified by the “timelessness” of their gray beards, to shuffle and mumble
and hrrrfmmph around the room, *periodically" casting metered gazes at the
black hole( helpfully drawn on cardboard with a sharpie and hung from the
chalkboard), which is never there to explain itself when this quorum meets( because
it wasn't timeless, or just wasn't on time?).
But as they say, Absence makes the clock tick faster, at least in a
black hole, where if you really think about it, it's far too dark to see clocks
from within black holes, so who are we to say whether the sum of all time is
singular condensed down to an atomic unit, not really much larger in size or
weight than the inherent value of a Bit coin on Chinese New Year. (So does that make Mr. Bit Coin stoic, or
ignorant?) but more importantly, just the 30 seconds spent on a nonsensical
vision of a personified Mr. Bit Coin is enough to 1) re-enforce the fact that
we covet our 30 second fantastical escapades with C Bitty 2) run rough shod in
our size 13EEE Geesus Ignorante moon boots over the tops of the truly time
deifying list of entities existing within our realm.
And no, I am not going to give you the list, and no it's not
on Wiki (although it was briefly until the Wikilluminatitics snubbed their
noses as the OMG so frustrating syntactical errors in the timelessness entry in
the oh so time-bound sneeze of inbred cronyism( Chronologicism) that seeks to
pleasure themselves in tapping out a death measure, absurd as a Hospice Drum
Corp, but no less imprecise. And as they
stroke each other in congratulatory gesture for the swiftness of snuffing out
the fresh faced junior wiki editors spirit, the rabble without a cause bumbles
past the densely packed voids of unseen, unimaginable, and yet often described
continuums in which, well, umm, things, just sort of continue, um and um, and don't
actually seem to stop.
But this , this right
here is a clearly demarked spot, where at any given moment, frictionless
intellectualism gives way to Build a Bear, and Panda Express, and takes up a
corner spot in Anywhere Mall USA, where everything fits in a box or a cup, and
is handed over one way or another within the allotted 23 second Commandment
from the Book of Dr O'range J. Ulius who once said: give me time and I will use
it, give me more and I will use that too, and in my greatest hour of need, when
the light is fading, and the last rotisserie dog is once again reclaimed
from the ethereal place between tile and
infinitum, and i say, and I say, Give unto me, yeah, unto the J to the Jizzo
and the Or to the rizzo, a space, nay, a continuum, that shall ever again feel
the choking suffocation of spaces that are chained like dogs to their time
keeper masters, and where continuums are welcomed with open arms, and each,
receives without bias, that extra breath of eternal life, that subtle nudge
towards everness, that crook of magic that transforms the Continuums of oh so
many mortal fleetings, into the continuums that understand inherently that the
only true destination of timelessness has now become their never-ending journey
into the blackness, the black hole of blackness, the blacky blackinuum, where
even the brightest of Indiglo phosphors cannot convey shock, awe, or time! and this must be the beginning of the
beginning, but, even if it’s not, who's to say when you just can't see at
all.
And i hope, without all of the sincerity of a hairless,
blind tunnel mouse( ! are you seriously questioning the sincerity of a blind,
hairless. mobile verminadere?) that I, have succeeded in absconding off with
your time, which, is easily given, but nearly impossible to return, especially
when clearly it's been at least partially multi-tasksumed.
So the 15 minute question begs to be asked: Given all that
we have just been through, who is more timeless? Those with the ability to usurp time? Or
those who are truly less of all time?
And I'm pretty sure that this is the bonus question on the
Jedi Knight Final Exam....just FYI
