«Αυτός που διαβάζει με όρους ανοχής, μπορεί να με διαβάσει. Αυτός που διαβάζει με όρους συμμετοχής, όχι».

Yannis Livadas: This swollen face is a wreath



This swollen face is a wreath.

Many of those who exhibit the unseen arrangement
Of death are not visible.
In contrast to the unscathed delirium of life.

So, don’t bother.
Interiority equals cowardice.

Conceptually some delve into fears.
Not here though.

Those over there are resuming
Based on the peacefulness of the testicular balls.
Bash.

Such hours you have to rejoice
That the spirit is a man
And with just a weather forecast
Is getting ready for
The futile.



2001
