Tonight is the night
we change the clock
back to Standard Time.
Everyone gains an extra hour of sleep
or work – if there on the night shift,
310 million Americans
each gains an hour—
310 million extra hours
is equal to over
12,900,000 days
which translates to
over 35,380 years
over 353 centuries,
35 millennia
will occur
all before sunrise,
all this from going back to
Standard Time
and it
still
isn’t enough.
Oh my goodness, how I love This! What startling thoughts and, no, it is never Enough!
ReplyDeleteSuch an interesting concept altogether, time. Feels so real!
ReplyDeleteLove that end... and then we still waste the time later...
ReplyDeleteI hate daylight golf time. Eliminate it!
ReplyDeleteIt's never enough, is it? What an interesting twist to falling back.
ReplyDeleteCue the applause!
ReplyDeleteAll those collected minutes and still we are starved for time. Great writing!
ReplyDeleteSeems it may never be. The daylight savings thing is... frustrating. But this observation is bigger than all that. Love it.
