Читать книгу In the Pendulum // Im Pendelschlag - Helmut Lauschke - Страница 7

Everything comes to an end

and uncounted years are falling back.

Intention and result remain unknown,

when breath has stopped before the time.

Good is difficult to separate from bad

if the chain of thoughts is torn to pieces

and the bridge into the future is blown up.

It is a critical situation when man stands in front of the question

and has taken the wrong way in his time.

The doubt is justified to land in the cul-de-sac

where the end is a surprise but clearly marked

that you have to start from the beginning.

There is no other way than the way back

though the time is running out

and the end of life is imminent.

In philosophical terms, life is like a pendulum swing.

Course and amplitude of the swing determine success or failure.
