8513 - Victims’ tears

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou, Evi Charitidou

Next time
that you will walk in the rain
think that these drops
are the victims’ tears
of the crime against Humanity
we call genocide
then you will understand
that denying their existence
by refusing
is like saying that it is not raining,
if you don’t think about it
then it is useless crying
for your fate as law.
