26827 - A light decathlon
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias
A light decathlon
you must do
in order for the baton
to never fall
so stop
the meaningless complaints
and listen to the advice
if you indeed aim
to stay alive
in the battlefield
because of course
it’s the only way
for you to be here
even afterwards
for other battles
of the war
of Humanity
against barbarism.
