ZEITGEIST

LIFE TAKES TIME – TIME TAKES LIFE

That’s obvious, you may say
But all depends on who and where you are
If you live day by day
If you come from afar

Some die young, some die old
Some are never born
Like the seed when it’s too cold
 Like love forlorn

Shakespeare and all the other minor bards intone
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow'st
Like a rolling stone, a complete unknown
It’s only your copyright you ow’st

Time has time and can wait forever
Warped in space and in your eyes
You say never say never
But it’s time that flies

There is no rhyme and reason
Break free from the rhyme
But not from the reason
That in theory rhymes with time

The rich have time to waste
The poor have no money to buy it
Life is so unfair
Time is indifferent
I’ve lost the rhythm
Gone atonal, lost in languages
Die Zeit jagt die Liebe weg und die Liebe jagt die Zeit weg
The title in German with love
La petite mort
The French objective of literature (Barthes)
Ahakoa, he aroha iti, he pounamu tonu
In Māori a little love is precious too

TIME OUT
