Follow the trawler

Try to imagine a life without timekeeping.
You probably can’t.
You know the month, the year, the day of the week.
There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car.
You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie.
Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored.
Birds are not late.
A dog does not check its watch.
Deer do not fret over passing birthdays.
Man alone measures time.
Man alone chimes the hour.
And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.
A fear of time running out.

The Fuck You Song I Wish I’d Written
So you wanna know me now?
How I’ve been?
You can’t help someone recover
After what you did
So tell me
Am I looking better?
Have you forgot whatever it was
That you couldn’t stand about me,
about me, about me?
Because
Yes I do feel better, yes I do
I feel alright
(I’m better now)
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you’ve got to offer!
You wanna know me now?
How I’ve been
You can’t help someone recover
After all that you did
So tell me
Am I looking better?
Or have you forgot whatever it was
That you couldn’t stand about me, about me, about me?
Because
Yes I do feel better, yes I do
I feel alright
(I’m better now)
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you’ve got to offer!
Yes I do feel better, yes I do
I feel alright
(I’m better now)
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you’ve got to offer!
On and on and on and on and on and on – has no-one said?
Stay away
Stay away
I’m better, better
Yes!
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you’ve got…
‘Yes’
