we are but silt caught
held in a flow labeled time
current to future

haiku confines wording something fierce...time current flows nowhere...with respect to 3d, time is as a klein bottle

Very nice comparison of Time as a current flowing towards the future. I have a large classical music disk collection. It's the only music I listen to with the exception of bluegrass and very early New Orlean jazz. Thank you for the stop by. Best to you. / M
