☾
unreal
in a room
cluttered with duckbill platypii,
delorians in brushed steel,
and fishbowls full of pregnant
male seahorses, (1)
the atomic clock ticks
keeping time. (2)
1* female seahorses deposit fertilized eggs in pouches on males’ bellies, where they keep until hatching.
2* the atomic clock is said to track time more accurately than the rotation of the earth.
