40825 - The perennial genocides

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

The perennial genocides
are not only one
but all of these
which happened
one century ago
and became
examples
for Lemkin
to succeed
after
the studies
to coin
the notion
of genocide
and to offer it
to Humanity
so that she has
the capability
to be protected
against
barbarity
which tries
to strike
fatally.
