15987 - The statue of Phidias

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias

The statue of Phidias
was destroyed by deceit
so that the greatness of the work
would not exist,
and the society
of indifference
heard only
regarding the economic
and the theft accousations
disregarding
it’s value.
And when it was proven
that the sculptor
was innocent
then, a peace crime
was proved
provided by the society
that has no mnemonic capacity
and sees
only the money.
