Man: what a weird thing!

By Vladimir Huber

How can you cry while you smile?
How can you love while you lie?
How can you kill while you pray?
Is it true that you can only do both,
without knowing the difference in between?
Is it true that all men have lived in a dream,
but thinking of concrete, touchable reality,
the one that earthly people like?
It makes me wonder, that’s all.
No offense, no further thoughts,
‘cause we are too blind to even think.
Keep on walking in circles,
that someday you will get dizzy.
