Distorting Time

The folds of time overlap
Creating ripples through reality
Clearly distorted yet
Still obviously linear
If time travels in a straight line
Then why are most clocks circular?
And does time travel backwards
In a reflection?

    Time is fascinating and impossible to understand! Lovely poem, Tom.

      Thanks, Amy. It’s certainly interesting when you take time to think about it! 😀

    If time is relative to your velocity through space then does that mean that we are experiencing a distortion of space/time as our star travels around our home Galaxy??? 🙂

    God Bless!

      YES! We’re all whirling around in some kind of distorted time ‘soup’… you’ve hit the nail on the head there, Prenin. (As you can tell, my Inner Scientist enthusiastically agrees!) 😉
