Exploring the nature of time as a human construct and an abstract, fourth-dimensional entity, questioning its origins and existence beyond perception.
About this video
WHO INVENTED TIME?
Time, you are a mere illusion,
You only exist in our mind,
A fourth dimensional abstract entity,
An enigma of some kind!
We humans have invented you,
And brought you to our scene;
But like the moth you feed on our
calendars,
To fatten up from within!
Necessity, the mother of inventions,
Created the calendar and the clock;
Which cater to our needs, -
Does it come to you as a shock! ?
With these inventions we measure, -
Our rotations around the burning sun,
While in your self - delusion,
You think of having all the fun!
Our ageing is a biological process, all
starts from within,
Right from our conception, programmed
in our very genes!
Our monuments wither, and our landscapes
waste,
All due to environment and weather, and
not at your behest!
Our lust for power, our hunger and greed,
Have destroyed civilizations, wiping it out
complete!
But we donot succumb to you, nor accept
defeat!
We humans die, when our organs fail,
And not because of you, as any doctor
would tell!
Time, you exist all due to our humanity,
It is only because we accomodate you, -
With a cordial spirit of relativity!
Yet you try to brow beat us,
O what audacity!
Time, if you want importance, and wish
to co-exist,
At all times you must remain subservient,
and cater to our needs!
Though in reality you are only an imposter, -
Of the fourth dimensional kind,
Time, you only remain, as a figment of
my mind!
