Existential Earth By: Sebastien Lorin Tides

by Sebastien Lorin Tides   Oct 7, 2011


There is no art
without the motion of spirit.
The machine has no need of logic.
For 'twas man that built it.

There is no act or deed
absent of mankind.
Every work simple and great
has motivation behind.

So the world's potential was empty
before us.
So the moments and the memories
are for us.

All the value of the world was what is between us.
Lest the world be a rock of no account.
Lest no glory be afforded to it without witness.
Lest the world not be worthwhile without us.

So be music.
So be love.
So be a spirit within us.
