Time, for me, was at first just “the clock on the wall” at high school. When is lunch? When will this test finish? And when is home time?
But since prison, I only ever wonder about time in this regard: When is court? Or when is parole due? What time are programs? Even how long until my full-time custodial end date?
May… May… 9:30am… 2028
Things have changed from playgrounds to the confines of a prison yard, though something reassures me that maybe just maybe this isn’t all time has in store for me.
Just a breath; speck of dust, there’s plenty of present moments to make amends,
“What should I do now?” Focus on repaying your debts!
Thank you Lord, maybe one day I’ll be perfect, maybe is this amen!
Amen!

The decay of an atom indicates that time itself has passed, it is the origin of our concept of time.

Our time machine doesn’t take the form of a Tardis, or DeLorean, yet it does represent an equally large figure in pop culture and science fiction (at least those forced into hard labour on a mining planet colony usually got a spectacular view of the galaxy around them).
