The Pause

In an empty white room some potatoes are hanging under the ceiling. The distance between the potatoes and the ceiling is not big and, probably, is not even visible for everybody. The shadows on the ceiling help to realize it. The potatoes are on the verge of fall and sticking to the ceiling. The verge is very subtle and, in principle, falls and sticking are possible (the process of electromagnetic levitation). There are magnets in the potatoes, which maintains them in a state of levitation. But the foreign body hidden inside the vegetables accelerates the decay process. That is why the potatoes will start to rot slowly and to fall but the magnet which maintained them under the ceiling will be still in a state of levitation. The fallen potato is replaced by a new one.
