40891 - If you comprehend

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias

If you comprehend
that subsistence
is merely
unofficial
servility
then
you’ll stand up straight
and remove
your shackles
and you’ll seek out
the bond
with freedom
in order for you as well
to be worthy
of fighting
without compromises
against
the barbarism
of oblivion.
