18018 - Our Greece

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou, Evi Charitidou

Our Greece
that eats
her children
as many say
in reality
she only eats
those that are tasteful
because it is only in this way
that she never dies
otherwise without
this substance
she would have become
a society
without history
that would not have been touched
by Hellenism
since she would have been
only a country
and not Time.
