It all started because of this contest announcement .

My entry is below:
=======================================================

Zeitgeist may be sweet as halva sometimes,

But be warned - it' a lick and a promise:

It's sapid, alluring - beware its chimes -

Be better a doubting thomas.

Let serendipity move its contraband

Through praxes of sound and bites.

As mantic as prophets beholding the land,

You will be for days and for nights.

And then ataraxia comes as a gift

To those who looked and who saw...

But as semilunar as a snowdrift -

Zeitgeist wanes away in a thaw.
