Don’t say that they’ve abandoned
the stone village
of Anavatos
since you know
what happened
in 1822
with the massacre
of Chios
and even
if you hadn’t learned
that it is about
a genocide
even before
this word was born
learn
at least
that it was
a crime
against Humanity
because
barbarism
wiped out
only the innocent
and them alone,
that’s the reason
that the village
became a deserted one,
and only that.
