when the ticking stops
time is circular. at least it’s represented that way. it starts where it ends and then starts all over again. we glide from one moment to the next. some moments seem longer, others seem to go by a few ticks at a time. eventually, the clock stops. but what about the ticking? the clock itself moves the hands. there’s no telling when the clock is going to stop, but the hands can be stopped at anytime. i feel like i’ve been following the hands for a while, floating from moment to moment, letting the ticking dictate how i spend my time. i’m ready to stop the hands. i like it here. i’m gonna stay put for a while and not worry about what i should do by the time the hands come back around.
