Red Crops
written by: Kapardeli Eftichia
Before I was born in the vast material…
isolated
without touch
In the dark
grew up
the crowd, listing in
sacrifice the roar
Travelled emaciated
from hunger and
torture
solid walls
to marble my wings
shivers in horror
Silently bodies around me
drift, slide
inappropriately to unequal
balances in limbo
denatured
Red crops of the Sun
which watered with
excess blood friends
and buried roots…
cries muffled
heard every night
pierce the veins, air
metamorphoses
Fire water
They do not die
