Eve and the Serpent
Hi everyone,
Projects like this are why I disappear now and then:) but I’m back and thrilled to share my latest YouTube with you all:)
Time Flies is my latest original poem and music.
Please Watch in 4K, Full Screen and Sound nice and high!!
It was shot on my home sim, LINC Island in Second Life.
I found this flying clock at a train station depot in Second Life and KNEW it could be something:):)
Thanks to the great artists of the early days there (SL) My dear friend Scottius Polke, Bishuz Decker (my first heartbreak:) and Lash Xevious of the never to be forgotten Island “La Reve”
Here is the poem for those who would like to translate it.. Music was made in Garage Band and absolutely no AI used in this film in anyway.
Time Flies
I’m coming throoooouuugh!!!
Outa my way.
I gotta keep moving
I can’t stay.
Enjoy the good times
because the bad ones
are on their way
Oh I know…they’re coming
I see the signs everyday.
You know what keeps me wound?
I move around.
I’m too sweet to lose the beat
I’m always right on time.
If I had legs
I’d run in style
a four- legged wind rider
eating up the miles
I’d be running so fast
today would be tomorrow
in the blink of an eye
and this very minute
would be in the past.
Enjoy every minute
that can be found
because the good ones
just like the bad ’
keep on cycling
round & round.
It’s like I grew wings
when you were tucked in tight
and now it all goes faster
day into night
See the truth
with your own eyes
Time Flies! Time Flies!
It’s so mechanical Time
I’m on overwind…
the past & the future
it’s all in my mind….
Just make hay when the sun shines.
I once went out
in the universe
Time has no meaning out there
you see…
that’s what they explained to me
and they said I don’t belong
Speed goes there all the time
but he never takes me along.
I was in the beginning
and I’ll be at the end
I ticked thru Alpha
tocked to Omega
whatever comes next
you better believe it
I’ll be there to get it
I kept time
when Eve
danced with the snake
I echoed her heartbeats
I witnessed the truth of
every scene.
Then years go by
and history paints
a brand new story
a bedtime tale
to put you all to sleep
Time runs away
with your life
and before you know it
Time’s up!
I’m being serious now
even I feel my beat’s getting faster
the days growing shorter
and I’m the Time Master!!
Who’s behind the panel?
Let’s slow it down a beat
even I’m getting tired
and that’s me!
Time runs away
with your life
and before you know it
Time’s up!
Your time of course
not mine…
mine can not even be counted
I will be here for eternity times fourty-nine

A poem that mixes lightness with depth, fantasy with reality, and reminds us -with rhythm, humor and beauty- that time never stops, nor waits for us. Therefore, living fully, now, is the only way. An endearing, intelligent and absolutely inspiring project. ⏳💫
A cordial greeting and a big hug🌹💫

Hola Lincol y que gusto de encontrar tu comentario…
I am thrilled you have taken the time to let me see all you discovered in this very small video and yet you saw everything:) Yes that is the message and Time itself delivers it..”Before you know it, Time runs away with your life” Don’t waste it…not even a minute..Live it fully concious and fully grateful..
Gracias y un gran abrazo desde Costa Rica:)
