Panel 1
LUKE: WHAT IS THE NATURE OF TIME?
LUKE: DOES TIME HAVE A SHAPE? IS IT AN ARROW, OR THE ROOTBALL OF A TREE?
LUKE: OR PERHAPS SOME ENORMOUS FLOATING BUM, AND US ALL SWEPT UP IN THE MOMENTUM OF ITS COLOSSAL, UNEARTHLY FARTS.

Panel 2
LUKE: IMAGINE TIME AS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE HELD IN YOUR HANDS AND TURNED.
LUKE: THAT WAS THE GREAT INTELLECTUAL FEAR OF THE 20TH CENTURY:

Panel 3
LUKE: THAT TIME WAS A COMPLETED ENTERPRISE, AND THAT IT ONLY SEEMED OTHERWISE TO US BECAUSE WE COULDN’T SEE THE REST OF IT.
