a smeared present
by uzwi
Includes some events from the immediate past. As you grow older the effect increases. When you were a child your smeared present was only a few minutes long; by the time you reach sixty it’s two or three years. A very smeared present can include anticipated events from the near future as if they have already happened.

It makes much more sense than Simple Present Tense. Present simply tensed, maybe… Or present imperfect. It should do, too. Cheers.
I just read that, and now my sense of things makes a lot more sense.
Thanks, Darko.
Hi rgck: some things you would never write fiction about but you struggle to express them anyway. This must be my 432nd attempt at the extended present…
