IN AN INSTANT!

It is a strange place, this world,
where people scoff at you
for your foolery
but conveniently forget
your greatest wisdom.


Triumph gives you
all the superior friends
while failure
gives you a lonely enviornment.


In the same instant
you can become
from a best friend
to the world's biggest moron.


In an instant 
the world can become
from a friendly humane manuscript
to a zombie inhabitation.


In an instant
the sky can turn
from a sunny harbour 
to a begrudging black curtain.


In an instant
your greatest talent
can make your buddy
change from a companion
to an envious opponent.


In an instant
your life can become
from a piece of cake
to a moonwalk.


In an instant
you can become
from the greatest God
to the filthiest demon.


And in an instant
your life can become
from a happily-ever-after fairytale
to a Biss zur Mittagstunde!
