24539 - When you cannot

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Theodoros Tsiamitas

When you cannot
endure the uphill
of Mankind
you don’t just return
to society
but you go tumbling down
with momentum
because you no longer want
to see the light
and you’re blinded
because the truth too
disturbs you
which illuminates
reality
because you have
qualms
and you don’t want
to see them
neither to have
references made
about them
in order to feel
even now
that you are
innocent.
