INNOCENCE
by kapardeli eftichia
THE OPPONENTS HAVE RECEDED
THE POISONS HUMAN MIND
THEY RUINED THE REALITY
THEY LEFT BACK DESTRUCTION
***
IN THE RUINS I FOUND
THE CHASED INNOCENCE
ABOVE IN PILES FROM STONES
JUST AS FAT DROPS OF RAIN
INVADE FROM EVERYWHERE
IN THE OLD HOUSE THAT
SOMETIMES WAS FAMILIAN
IN THE RUINS REFUGEIN
ALIVE A NEW CHILD
***
A ROSY PROMISE
CHASTITY AND YOUTH
WAS RESCUED
