31428 - Who gave you
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Theodoros Tsiamitas
Who gave you
the right
to stop
the relay race?
You don’t see
that the baton
has nothing
for anyone
when it doesn’t cross
the finish line.
So look
at those
before you
and after you
in order to learn
what you must do.
Because if the last one
does not pass,
nobody passes,
and you spit
on the dead.
