23423 - At the Ancient Stadium
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi
At the Ancient Stadium
the people were running
as if they knew
they were continuing
a relay race
which had begun
centuries ago
and each one
as a tessera
of the same mosaic
with the orbital
of his spirit
filled in the code
without exhaustion
because they knew
that it is about
the future
of humanness
and the proper
of Humanity
within Time
so that the mnemosyne
doesn’t perish.
