The Relevance of Time
Passes quickly - doesn't it?
It's a wind that blows fiercely for
a brief time
then dies down
Little time to change
course
Little time to overcome
wounds we have suffered from
We need the healing touch
of cool rain
Then, refreshed , we can
continue on our own journey
If the clock only
spins in one dimension
Then where can we
place blame?
Let's take heart
in the pulse of the city
We can learn from
the movements
of the broad masses
of people
Yes, there is still
hatred, and war
But while the breath is in us
We can move
with the rhythms of
humanity
With a bright and
fierce determination
We will let the angry winds of despair
pass us by
