Silence. How long it lasted, I couldn't tell. It might have been five seconds, it might have been a minute. Time wasn't fixed. It wavered, stretched, shrank. Or was it me that wavered, stretched, and shrank in the silence? I was warped in the folds of time, like a reflection in a fun house mirror.

What's fame, after all? It can be what someone writes on your tombstone.
Peter DuncanStichwörter: time fame epitaph
there's time for laughing and there's time for crying—

It was not the time it was here that you remember, Faolan, but rather the luminescence of the air, the blue shadows cast by the trees in its light.

Kathryn LaskyStichwörter: time
They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams an instant, then it's night once more.
Samuel BeckettStichwörter: time death existentialism
