Slowly, Speedily Turning

SLOWLY, SPEEDILY TURNING

All at once both slow and fast all at once. A sense of motion is awesome, 
has anyone ever felt such a heady rush of speed 
together with total slowness and lack of motion?

Let’s set off on our journey up to the hills, 
we will arrive in seconds and in days…
here there are two speed vortices that we share at the same time, continuously.

Who an earth wants to move both slow and fast at once? I would for one.
Soon maybe everyone can – it may happen to them when they don’t expect it…
standing still and your world starts to rush by, unending rush.
