Timepiece
Congratulations watch-wearers!
You are cuffed
to an illusion.
Don’t be ashamed,
it would be too convenient
if we all wore our delusions fastened to our bodies.
The earth’s entirety!
Still you think your last remark was ironic.
Cubicles! Dotted lines!
Awake! You who prostrate yourselves
before clocks! Unwind
your misconception - Now,
bow to the second hand!
The earth’s entirety! Still you think your last remark was ironic. Cubicles!

I love this Schedule Free Clock Uncontrolled manifesto. The attitude is just right and makes the critical voice an urgent voice in the wilderness pleading for some sane flow to the overregulated hours chained to the clock and its 9 to 5 death knell spent anticipating or remembering. The second hand is 'now' and that is our only actual timeless constant moment that life occurs in. Give a second and get 'Now.' Zen activism!
