6323 - Injured charm

N. Lygeros
Translation: Paola Vagioni

What was the reason
to injure charm?
What was the reason
to steal humanity?
Was wealth not enough?
They wanted our light as well?
The crime of peace
had from now on a face.
It was the Caryatid
alone in the shadow.
And the war had no name,
the victims existed
even anonymous.
And if peace
had no meaning,
its absurd
had its loot.
