impatient, i wait
willing the toaster's clock on
as if to speed time

all those rushes, stitched back whole,
a could-be lifetime's thought, lost

This sentence in the morning affirmation by @nlowell upthread caught my eye as so universal and familiar: "So much to do and the day slips through my fingers like water." A lot of water thus flows under the bridge.

A quotation from Shakespeare, William:

«
MERCUTIO:Come, we burn daylight, ho!
ROMEO: Nay, that’s not so.
MERCUTIO:I mean, sir, in delay.
We waste our lights in vain, light lights by day.

Dallas Frasca, Wasting time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44ZFxmnsRNs

#DallasFrasca #WastingTime #Music #MusicVideo

Someone called my attention to the following today:

God "created mankind", "male and female he created them" on "the sixth day", in Genesis 1.

Only after, in Genesis 2, he "formed a man" (notice it doesn't say the man) and then "took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it".

So, when this guy Adam was created all mankind (male and female, men and women) had already been created. Of course.

Don't buy that idiocy that "we're all descendants of Adam and Eve - not to mention the idiocy of taking literally that the woman was made from a rib of the man.
(A more intelligent interpretation would be that Adam broke a rib fighting with other men in order to take Eve from them and her tribe.)
