19750 - A century of cry

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

A century of cry
is what
recognition needs
and not of course
a moment of silence
because for years
nobody says
absolutely anything
for the victims
as if everybody
forgot them
with their oblivion
so don’t ask for
the silence
to continue
and especially
for the trinity
it is best to say
the Lord’s Prayer
so that the word
be heard
which was taught to us
by Christ.
