FRUIT-LEAF-ROOTS-flowers
by kapardeli eftichia
Memories
nothing leaves nothing comes
marks on the rocks
who stayed
Joined the lake bottom, forever
The house in the poplars
our voice taller
pups on foliage
companions foreign languages
the roar of the wind lost
Write Names in Heaven
with throws of birds
light trap in circles
the affection of a quiet day
With hands dig the earth
soil that never slept
next to the thorns beside the ruin
hit with power vein
look for payment
But I do not bear fruit this year
the tree of patience
with bent twigs
flowers are not pulled
thirst for life
Leaves, fruits, roots, blossoms
