This month's community themed week is going to be centered around perceptions of time. A few weeks ago the majority of US states (all except Arizona and Hawaii) shifted forward an hour for Daylight Savings Time. This bi-annual shifting frequently provokes reflection. There are standardized concepts of time, which can be varied by culture and time even in our digitally interconnected age. Then there are personal perceptions of time, both through our internal clocks and rhythms to how we experience individual moments in time. Poetry has long been used to explore these themes and the social and cultural themes that are so heavily entwined with these perceptions. Please comment below if you would like to host a day during this week, and note which day would work best for you.
