Lewis Carroll: “Fixing Time”

Calculating simplicity is not as easy as you think.
How we must struggle to resolve every last kink.
A victory that’s reserved for just the valiant few.
Renegades who recognize there’s really nothing new.
Leaving behind a wallowing world that restrains.
Exchanging this kingdom for the one that sustains.
See, such a simplicity is certainly so very unsimple.
Doctrines and deacons are sure to get lost in its ripple.
Only the man ahead can understand what’s behind.
Dividing the impossible from the probable mind.
GOD SAVE THE MAN LOST IN HIS BRAIN!
Such a losing battle must be ever so hard to maintain.
Over and over, his computations are intense.
No room for error, no time for this nonsense.

  1. Some quotes attributed to Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson):

    “So, having no reply to give
    To what the old man said,
    I cried, ‘Come, tell me how you live!’
    And thumped him on the head”

    “Must a name mean something?” Alice asked doubtfully.
    “Of course it must,” Humpty Dumpty said with a short laugh: “my name means the shape I am—and a good handsome shape it is, too. With a name like yours, you might be any shape, almost.”

    “I see nobody on the road,” said Alice.
    “I only wish I had such eyes,” the King remarked in a fretful tone. “To be able to see Nobody! And at that distance too! Why, it’s as much as I can do to see real people, by this light!”
