6518 - The sculpture of silence
N. Lygeros
Translation: Paola Vagioni
One had to remain immobile
in order to see in the night
the sculpture of silence
of a man of the past
who had crossed time
in order to bring the ideas
of freedom of the slaves
to transform them in men
thanks to his revolution.
But everyone
kept moving
as if to believe
in the existence of the trivial
also we weren’t
but a few
in seeing the image of truth
