Performance of Life
POETRY FORMAT, 12 Feb 2018
Adolf P. Shvedchikov – TRANSCEND Media Service
The day went, tomorrow’s day hurries…
There is the same smell of roses,
The same scenes of the life are rehearsed
With a set of the same tears…
The curtain opened, the actors re-enter the stage
They play the whole learned role:
Love is imperishable, then reproached for treason,
And in rare moments of enlightenment
You realize how terrible is terrestrial world.
And so from generation to generation,
Will it survive, tell me, this sick world?
