8517 - Humanness of a human

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

Humanness of a human
is not only a trace
or an old ruin
but one achievement
thanks to the memory
and the time defining
the spirit and body,
the willingness to help
whatever the cost is
because the existence itself
is nothing but co- existence
without it, this is not worthy
to be called life.
