3032 - The exhausted comrade

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou

Tiredness had brought him to his knees,
and the man of earth
had to have rest.
And we started dancing
and we put him in the middle of the cycle
in order to protect him.
He stared us and he could live
as he would die one day.

Quietly with his own.
