The Timeline

It's hard for me to adjust to time

Or to the times

Time in the manner that I write when I should be asleep

I work when I should be working and when I should be resting

I sleep when I should be spending time with my family

These times have been forged by a series of events

Time frozen, events mark time periods like a personal assault

You remember everything about the person who assaulted you

Freezing that moment in time as some marker for enlightenment as some forced change

Time does not work that way

And I find it difficult to work that way too

I am not tracking the sun and moving in unison

The moon is not my ruler

To time I am not beholden

To the times neither

Maybe I'm living centuries ago

Attempting to revive archaic artforms

Truly attempting to investigate the world around me

I am the truly illuminated I understand that knowledge and wisdom cannot be obtained

But they still must be sought

There is no time to do that, there is no time to work, there is no time to think or have thoughts

But you must react now. You must do now. Think later, act now.

There are no other moments because time is fragile but to the timeline, we must adhere

I'm doing my best to adhere to the timeline

I will comply

A Cat In Pain

Meow, meow, me-

"Thank you for ending that, please."

Meow, meow, me-
