38570 - When you don’t know

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias

When you don’t know
what to do
then you
randomly
place a bet
and for that reason
you love
backgammon,
but
if you believe
that’s
how life goes
then you in error
threw the dice
upon the chessboard
and as a result
you’re unable
to observe
the next
future
within
the present.
