Май. Все еще холодно.
   Желаемое недостижимо.
     Жизнь и время -
что бы ни делать -
   проходят мимо.*
"We're just passing through,"
    said a lady in the film
"Before the Moon".*
  The first two films were cool,
fine,
   but a film about a happy family life
is unbearable
   bringing forth a sardonic smile.

That is why
    all the films,
stories and plays
 end with a wedding
and then...
   who knows!
But that's not a subject for both,
   i.e. either.
And only when
  there comes a trage-
dy
 art starts
  lifting its chin
in a hope
   to create something
new
  there has never been,
I mean, 
 before,
  and will be 
never more.
