Faustian Bargain

Caught in a spotlight from a star Long time ago extinguished Isn’t it good to see so far A mirrored image finished This view relates to time I guess If one looks from the star side A planet Earth must be a mess That long ago has died Time works like turning of the key It opens lots of spaces I borrowed little time for me To let me see through faces One day a Faustian bargain We’re forced to make, before we go Each ounce of dust looks quite the same Is this important thing to know?
