Time is a construct displaying humanity’s absurd notion that if it can conquer a planet, then it can also be the master of the clock, of the minutes and seconds that ever present in nature; in the grand scheme of the apparent stillness of the universe, the world is only tune to the beat of the one who calls itself master, and that in which plays the tune to be heard in the Honky Château.

Never mind ten years that have passed in our struggle to fill Time, it is the half century of existence between points that can drive us to the edge of human madness.

The cause célèbre is one that as the 21st Century has marched onwards has gained ever more attention, everyone it seems today has the potential to seek a worthy initiative in which to fight against many of the injustices that blight and damage society. This positive conflict is what keeps us on our toes, but also one that perhaps is orchestrated behind the fact that never before has the ability to rub shoulders and ideas with those we perceive to be celebrity been so prevalent.

It may not be the last we hear of John Wick, but if the series was to end on Chapter 4 then the final instalment of the lone assassin’s revenge/redemption tale is by far and without argument, its masterpiece.

Therapy is undervalued, especially when it is one of your own making, your own source of companionship, your own place and time finding ways to defeat the false fears and ills that cloud our days and our souls; the damage wrought by the defeat in advance, the conscious, overwhelming beating before you have taken to the ring…these are the moments in which therapy, in caring for oneself, is to be applauded, urged, and followed through upon.

Pop culture moments tend to stick in the collective memory more than most, even when a person is obviously too young to have witnessed it first hand, the abundance of times it has been watched and rewatched, the stories of its greatness handed down from one generation to the next; pop culture is the ultimate foundation of the 20th and 21st Centuries to which glory has been immortalised in a single snap shot of a camera’s lens.

A ghost story does wonders for the spirits…
We walk through Time without thinking of the pieces of ourselves that we leave behind, shedding skin, leaving our imprint on everything we have held, touched, sat in, argued with, loved, abused, cared for; our soul has its own legacy to which we leave echoes of our lives trapped in the moment of Time forever.

Murder is an abhorrence to nature, and yet there are circumstances in which the taking of a life can be seen as a mercy, that it can be driven by political fears, and that of desperation when viewed through the lens of self-defence.
Even in age where there appears to be a glut, an overwhelming dedicated number of column inches in newspapers and social media driven commentary to any number of murders that take place in Britain, and around the world, it still comes as a shock to the senses that someone would willingly take another life, and even more astonishing when the murderer is revealed as a woman.

A poem is never truly finished, but despite the great Paul Valery’s insight, it is, in the hands of a master, never abandoned, it just waits for right moment to undergo a metamorphosis which transcends its original moment in time, and take on the appearance, the structure of a different period in which the artist can revaluate their place in history. Poetry, art is never finished, but it can undergo a transformation which gives the voyeur and listener alike a reason to keep fighting.
