Lives In Balance

Each one with his calvary

Or with his treasure,

blessed or helpless,

Conquerors or conquered,

Wealth and Evil

in every human being...

Each with a charming smile !

It's the same smile that disdains,
The hand that strokes is the same that stones...

With pitying eyes

or with a merciless look.

However, no one is fully

Correctly or completely sane —

To each his share

And the load he can carry.
So since the world is world...!
