12283 - Three peoples in Greece
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi
Three peoples in Greece
have been through genocide
the Armenians, the Assyrians
and the Pontian Greeks
and yet only two
have been recognized
so I ask
what else are we waiting for
here in the land of sea
of the people of time
and of the sun of justice
to live together
the vindication of the victims
and the acquittal of the just
so that the perpetrator
understands at last
that we didn’t die.
