Go-Faster Stripes – 15th May 2026

Inspired by the lines “You can’t stop time/You can’t not change” from Pedestrian by Daniel Striped Tiger.

You can’t stop time –
a novel is now a tweet.
Too fast to flower
with their belly-bumping beat.

Knowing became binary,
so every two is strange.
In the great unravelling,
you can’t not change.

You can’t stop time;
no secrets will remain.
Plea deals by emoji
satisfy the monkey brain.

Speeding towards Mars
in planetary exchange.
Faster than light,
you can’t not change.


Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

Count Your Blessings

Don’t set your mind on things you don’t possess
The Joneses look at you, envious
Look upon your things and bless
Them with gratitude, more or less

Let me know your thoughts
