about

Oscillating between fear and hope
Everything is meaningless... Utterly meaningless! !
Vanitas vanitatum omnia vanitas..
Ubi sunt qui ante nos fuerunt?
Ubi nunc...?

Time is being consumed by nothing
Oscillating between hope and fear
Between the transience of life
Between the futility of pleasure
Between the certainty of death
Contemptu omnium vanitatum mundi
Ubi sunt qui ante nos fuerunt?
"The world and all its allurements pass away"
Artis bene moriendi...
Ars longa, vita brevis...

Amor fati... spill your life upon the page
Amor fati... your blood upon the anvil
Life is short, Art eternal....

Throw your heart into the words... Amor fati...
Dum vivimus vivamus..
Pour your soul into the world... Amor fati...
Dum vivimus vivamus..

Amor fati... your soul redeemed..
Ars moriendi.. your heart justified..
Vanitas vanitatum... your life affirmed..

Life is short, Art eternal...
