We can appreciate the energy in art <br />and feel strong in the transfusion, <br />but then time keeps dripping, <br />the curse of the beauty drinker. <br /> <br />Surrogate life, <br />virtual, safe, mediocre. <br /> <br />Looking in the usual wrong places, <br />we´ll never get to know <br />what we want. <br /> <br />I am able to believe anything, <br />to deceive myself once more. <br /> <br />Do we need a miracle? <br /> <br />In the meantime, <br />silently, <br />the mysterious order of truth <br />moves forward.<br /><br />Luis Gil de la Puente<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/3-the-curse-of-beauty-drinkers/
