12269 - If you don’t love ugliness

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Evi Charitidou

If you don’t love ugliness
you will never be able
to love victims
because when they die
they do not choose a pose
they are simply tortured
by genociders
in a barbaric way
and they cannot
be beautiful
to make it easy for you
they are authentic
with no compromise
and they seek for
a little compassion
from your love;
nothing else.
