The beginning in the end

2nd painting of the CAPTIVI TEMPORIS series (PRISONERS TIME)

“How much is it worth arguing with us..
that story that at the end you will feel the breath of the beginning.
Connected into a circle by a cosmic rope
measured strikingly by the same time for all.

Look carefully, do not close your eyelids for no reason
observe humbly, gift not only your cheeks with a smile.
Then you will have a beautiful mirror in your eyes,
enjoy the view full of colors to your heart’s content!

For the time is still unknown
when the beautiful mirror will lose its brightness.

The circle will remain a circle,
eternity hidden in it
but changed in a coin, into cold metal
where the hunt for each of us ends.
In the coin that you get on your eyelid
so that you, dead, can only dream
in times when words of admiration for beauty can no longer sound.”
