Gods play cards
Gods, high up in heavens, evoking
an old Greek style and as if trying to decide Troy's outcome, are throwing
their dice at random, betting for fates and destinies of peoples and
individuals aided by the signs given by each star, which will finally define
every fall and every number either awaited, unknown or simply mysterious
with the option of two opposite faces. Meanwhile, small angels are waiting
for the decisive throw, in order to change each life, only for the mere fact
that there has been a chosen one and then act as messengers of welfare or
disaster.
Candidates yearn and hope for favorable numbers, for a bright, smiling and
happy face, which will not always be the result of a first throw but with
patience and with the slow turn of the complex and enigmatic carrousel of
the cycle of life, that kind of ending will come true, just as, like by law,
human beings have their turn in a waiting list, for their birthday, their
wedding day, for their offspring and even for their death; all as part of a
constant throw of dice in which our winning numbers are about to fall on the
table.
