Backward Is Forward

The ball 
bounces 
backward
you chase it
you catch it
but you 
cannot
change it
backward 
is still 
moving
forward 
like 
your life
moving
forward 
through
time.

This sounds very Einsteinian. Which way are we moving? Time for a nap. This poem is an eye opener.

Thank you. I wish I could wrap my my mind around the things like Einstein did. *sigh* Unfortunately, I comprehend such a small part of those things.
