Many currents run beneath the surface of this at-first-glance whimsical piece. That no matter how modern we are, fluctuations in the normal pattern of the universe's operations still touch us in a significantly visceral way. That a compelling idea which takes us can push us to actions beyond logical explanation; that spiritual and artistic concepts can trump intellectual rationale. That we enmesh the progression of our lives into the framework of the otherwise indifferent universe's machinations, making all of our known reality a clock which ticks away the particles of our life, divided into movements of the heavens and earth. An intriguing piece, Daniel, which delves deeply.
