6630 - The secret angel

N. Lygeros
Translation: Paola Vagioni

The secret angel
had no wings
in order to be closer
to these men
that society tramples upon
and for not being afraid
of the monster of the skies.
He read them like books
and knew where to place
the hidden bookmark
so they would not forget
a few pages
of their pained lives
where light does not die.
