26186 - Spyros

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou

Spyros
is not
poppy
but cactus
and says
clearly
to societies
that he is ignoring them
because he is
cactus
that resists
wherever he is
because his character
doesn’t fear
the others
and doesn’t accept
compromises
so he met
the chameleon
in a desert
because they both
withstood
the nothingness
of crowd.
