19388 - The black church

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

The black church
had taken the color
of the volcano stone
for the locals too
to live
the spirit of Christ
with the two spires
nailed to the sky
over the city
it was looking at the future
and the past
together with the centuries
of the wars
in which
it had survived
to show
as well
to the next ones
of Humanity
the path
of the truth
with its height
and the light
of black.
