translated by Yannis Goumas
What a mad greedy
Dog is time licking
Our bones.
₪
In this Hades
Of the upper world.
₪
Behind the face, the mask.
₪
So many books, yet incapable
Of teaching
Ignorance.
₪
And the tongue
A scared little fish
Caught in the net
Of teeth.
₪
From a young age
With an illness we visited
Old age.
₪
Bronchitis’ cat.
₪
Millions of breasts
Dripping ―
For milk to shine
In the firmament.
₪
The moon’s bodiless head.
₪
Hypocrisy: the grandma of virtue.
