Calendar '25: suppl. info: Kairos

Where was the sculptor from?
   From Sicione.

What is his name?
   Lysippus.

And who are you?
   The moment in time that subdues everything.

But why are you on tiptoe?
   I am always running.

And why do you have wings on your feet?
   I fly in the wind.

And why do you hold a razor in your right hand?
   As a signal to men that I am sharper
   than any other edge.

And why does your hair fall down on your face?
   So that whoever meets me could catch me.

And why, for heaven's sake, is the back of your head completely shaved?
   So that whoever let me pass by on my winged feet can't hold me back - however badly
   he so wishes.

Why did the artist mold you?
   To your benefit, stranger, and he put me as a warning on the porch.
