TIME........

I counted my years
and realised that
I have less time to live by,
than I have lived so far.

I have more past than future.

I feel like that boy who got a bowl of cherries.
At first, he gobbled them,
but when he realised there were only few left,
he began to taste them intensely.

I no longer have time to deal with mediocrity.

I do not want to be in meetings where flamed egos parade.

I am bothered by the envious,
who seek to discredit the most able,
to usurp their places, coveting their seats,
talent, achievements and luck.

I do not have time for endless conversations,
useless to discuss about the lives of others
who are not part of mine.

I no longer have the time to manage
sensitivities of people who despite their chronological age, are immature.
I hate to confront those that struggle for power,
those that 'do not debate content, just the labels'.

My time has become scarce to debate labels,
I want the essence.

My soul is in a hurry ..

Not many cherries in my bowl,

I want to live close to human people, very human,
who laugh of their own stumbles,
and away from those turned smug
and overconfident with their triumphs,
away from those filled with self-importance.

The essential is what makes life worthwhile.
And for me, the essentials are enough!

Yes, I'm in a hurry.
I'm in a hurry to live with the intensity that only maturity can give.

I do not intend to waste any of the remaining cherries.

I am sure they will be exquisite, much more than those eaten so far.
My goal is to reach the end satisfied
and at peace with my loved ones and my conscience.

And per Confucius 'We have two lives
and the second begins when you realise you only have one.'

Poem: Mario de Andrade - The Valuable Time of Maturity

ZIMBABWE ACADEMY OF MUSIC & PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO
Tel: 2260684 / 2267195 E-mail: mailto:zam@gatorzw.co.uk

The Academy office is closed for Easter and Trade Fair weeks and re-opens on Tuesday 3 May.

THURSDAYS 5, 12 & 19 MAY AT 6.30 P.M. LINE OF DUTY: SERIES 5
An organised crime group (OCG) hijacks a police convoy transporting seized drugs and kills three armed officers. The ambush draws the attention of AC-12, who investigate whether or not someone leaked information of the police convoy to the OCG which in turn leads them to Operation Pear Tree, a highly classified undercover operation which is itself set up to expose links between organised criminality and the police service.
- With epic interrogation scenes, surprise betrayals, grisly murders, untold secrets, massive twists... well, it's just good to be back. [Radio Times]
- It's absolutely a must watch. It really builds up incrementally. Blinding, I loved it. [BBC.com]
- Season five has been a joyous ride and held the audience captive for the past six weeks. [Daily Express]
Admission: US$2.00 ($5.00 the series) [free to Film Members]

FRIDAY 6 MAY AT 6.30 P.M. LA BAYADERE - BALLET
An iconic 19th-century Russian ballet, La Bayadere was originally performed in St Petersburg in 1877, and has remained in the Russian repertoire ever since. It remained unknown in the West until the Kirov Ballet toured with the Kingdom of the Shades scene in 1961. Natalia Makarova saw La Bayadere as a child in Leningrad, creating this version of Petipa's ballet in 1980, and it was first performed by The Royal Ballet in 1989. As well as the famous Kingdom of the Shades, it contains roles of very different styles for two ballerinas in Nikiya and Gamzatti, a spectacular virtuoso solo for the Bronze Idol, a stunning pas de deux for Solor with both Nikiya and Gamzatti and much more. In this Royal Ballet production, Nikiya is danced by Altynai Asylmuratova, Gamzatti by Darcey Bussell, Solor by Irek Mukhamedov and the Bronze Idol by Tetsuya Kumakawa.
- The dancing of the principal soloists is quite simply superb. [Musicweb International]
- This is a ballet that truly has something for everyone: a sumptuously melodic score by Minkus, a plot as thumpingly dramatic as any old-time children's Saturday movie matinee or silent-screen film, with class and a redeeming whiff of ballet history. It also has exciting lead roles for four dancers. And the performers here are international stars. [New York Times]
Admission: US$2.00 [free to Red Carpet Members]
