22276 - If you do not study

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Sianne Tsandidis

If you do not study
the past
you do not actually know
how to conduct yourself
for the future
since the present
constitutes an obstacle
for existence
thus without excess
it cannot be
overcome
and if you are incarcerated
you too will quickly become
a victim
of a system
which you did not elect
because you did not manage
to perceive
its manifestation
as a social mode
without foundations.
