time trap by summerfield

time trap

we can't keep it, not now or ever. we think we own it, no. but it owns us. our heart beats to it and when time quits, you will, too. there's no trapping time because we're trapped in it.

instead of writing my assignment for tomorrow, i'm waxing poetic nonsense. i seriously think i am no longer a writer. methinks i am just a nobody. yesterday, it was quiet at the office. one of the young partners said, "there's nobody here!" i raised my hand and i said, "no, i'm here. i'm nobody!" which earned a chuckle out of my boss.

there's a movie called "time trap" which methinks i shall watch later on because it is about time travel. but there is also a song called "time trap" by a group called 'built to spill'. it's a noisy song and i wouldn't recommend it for listening unless you want those heavy metal sounds. here it is though, but know that you have been forewarned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1F9amPUZokg

by the way, that "bohemian rhapsody" post last sunday earned a place in the top twenty. i owe you all a lot of thanks and possibly some godiva chocolate.
Nicely done... and so true...

Congrats on the top twenty placing - well deserved. I enjoyed your poetic musings on time, but also felt a little bit nostalgic wondering just whether little blue might be feeling like a nobody, now that you have got the fancy time piece out.

As usual, I loved your story, always brightens up any day. And you're quite right too about both time and you not being a nobody.

there are a few of us somebodys reading and enjoying the talented "nobodys" line and images , but at times we are all truly trapped

Your Bohrmian Rhapsody Photo was breathtaking! I’m fretful for Little Blue, as he has been your “Time” star for so long. 😊

You have certainly waxed poetic on this one. I agree, I really miss Little Blue. I'm sure he is feeling like the nobody now that he has been replaced. Smile. Congratulations on TT. Well deserved.
