Barlad Expedition 2022 (4)
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
The Sun led me and my astronomer friends to the Vasile Parvan Museum (a splendid palace named after a great Romanian archaeologist), the main host of a famous annual cultural event, the Barlad Days, involving five parallel symposia or five parallel sessions of a great symposium.
In the archeology museum building,
among the ruined vestiges of the past that once shone,
I found another clock
impartially measuring the visitors' steps,
with the mention that even any huge astronomical step
is only transient in the Universe.
