Poems about Poetry
xai-kou
by kapardeli eftichia
From my book PATHWAYS AND PASSAGE
Thousands of hearts
Thousands of desires
Books … in the dust of libraries
tireless fighters
The beauty uprooted, but the seed
Invisible blooms again
Hope pinned
Stou unknown strobe light
The arc ancient dance
Footprints years stand out …
One thousand, myriad ways
I spend my wings
White roses spread
Cut into fingers
The statues awake
under the stars
The tallest tree in a
Bow ancient scar
