Time.

[Peter Connelly]

Time.

‘Time is the passing of events.’

Inwardly, if nothing much is happening,
Time crawls. Outwardly if all crashes,
Time slows too: survival time.

Falling out of outer time, wading through treacly déjà vu,
Inner time can track ahead.
You can catch the pre-echo of
A voice before the words are spoken,
And glimpse, perhaps, what’s about to come to pass.

Life is experienced in the interplay of
Clock-time and inner time, remembering
All the time, that time is self-referential,
Ultimately only a gauge of itself;
For what is a year, an hour, a century?

And so time contradicts the first line, or the last,
And brings us back, or forward, to
The first and last assertion that

‘Time is the passing of events.’
