The Changing Times


There is not much to say now, though of course there never was.  Whatever was said was just a repetition, perhaps a slight rephrasing, of something someone already said, as this is, and as whatever is said after this will be.  No one is fooling anyone, though that does not stop most people from pretending they’re fooled, because pretending feels much better.  Even if no one now feels much better than anyone ever did.  It’s not even hard for anyone to think things are different.  In fact, the most amazing thing is how easy it is to think anything at all.

It is with some playfulness that we actually sit down to the business of mastering the many pauses and the abrupt, sharp accretions of regular being in the clotted sphere of today's activities.
