I read it, didn’t understand parts (there is a clock? It’s been a long time) and then I turned around and read it again and still didn’t understand it 😂

always found the dragon clock to be like trumps first term. Distracting everyone with his stupidity / shiny objects while his sycophants destroy everything important. I think the clock is supposed to be a metaphor for nefarious religion (specifically christianity).
I'm not sure it's that specific or that it's even about religion as such. I read it as being more about the desire for secret knowledge: some people are prepared for it, & the machine ignores them or uses them appropriately; others can't, & those it just eats.
That's a really good thought. I think you're right that it might not be that specific but I see similarities (especially with impending doom similar to the bible's book of revelation)
it's been a while but I think I do recall some revelations references.
(I just keep coming back to the gleeful ruthlessness of the time-dragon-clock & its attendants. there's a lot to unpack, there.)
