Life is a bridge upon which humanity walks Forward lies the future, behind us, the past Once in a while you can observe someone Who, seems melancholy It only means that this someone Has taken the time to observe That nothing awaits further on On this endless bridge. Once in a while you can observe someone Who, seems content It only means that this someone Has closed their eyes, momentarily forgetting The endless journey ahead. Once in a while you might hear a joke ‘Tis told by the artist Who alone has stopped walking And noticed the world below Full of beauty, untouched and unknown A joke to the average man Who can only see the road ahead. -Octavian Ion, Artist's Joke, 1996 |
