OUR LIFE IS SHORT

entry picture

 

It seems you forgot, our life is short.

There is no time to beg or extort for support.

Learn how to live yourself.

Take a book from the shelf and…

delicately leafing page after page

you will find a wood sage.

People are like books,

some of them are good,

some of them are bad,

some of them are just mad,

some of them are not sassy,

they look more glassy,

they are not gassy,

they are classy

like books on the shelf

waiting for a warm hand.

Milliards of people are on the Land,

each one needs the right hand

so that to open it like a book and read.

If you manage to do it

you’ll succeed to learn a lot.

Remembering that life is short

you’ll learn how to burn the useless things,

how to leave the one without a gun

who troubles brings,

how to live with those you adore,

And… much  more.
