31283 - When the sky wept
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias
The sun was red like a lance wound.
It left its colour upon the sky
and that in turn cried
as it observed the end of innocence.
That’s how the amiseia of the Just began.
And they decided to illuminate the night as well with the suns,
even the darkest one of them,
so that Humanity would withstand
the attacks of barbarism.
And so the tears didn’t stop the battle
even though it could not occur without them.
That’s what the hyperstructure had learned from Chameleon.
For this reason the source leaked for the others.
Because even that was an offering
so that the innocent would live on
and withstand the suffering
up until the liberation
of all by everything.
That’s what she was taught
and that’s why she was joyous
when she wept for the first time
for Humanity
Because she learned that she now knew
about the continuity of the future.
