Made Of Time

How do you measure time in and around yourself? Or, is time as invisible and artificial as other sensations we assimilate? How much of the present are we prepared to abandon? Time and thought cannot be measured in the present, yet we have made them two of the pillars of our existence. Why? 
Made Of Time  Tell me why is time and why is space And why we swim them bound by grace Rescued on the ladders of our languages While mathematics grins its soundless face Flirting with our senses as though our lover While all the time attentive of some other Weighing burdens in the cities of our thinking While we dream excursions or escaping Tell me of the forces keeping us on grounds The gravities of lights and air bound sounds All thriving in the mysteries of galaxies Spinning, asking if their destinies are found Tell me why we think with patterns made of time So I can know beyond this universe’s mime  
Made Of Time is the new collection of inspirational poetry from Theophanis Kleanthous, author of Drying Naked (ISBN: 9781785891366).
