View towards the Unspoken

Και θέα προς το αμίλητο
  • Publisher: kedros (to be published in a new edition)
  • ISBN: 9789600415520

This poetic collection is dedicated to the mother. To our departed mother, to the mother who stood beside us like a shadow, to the mother who sleeps in our dreams, and traverses the corridors of our souls carrying the memories of tender age. "Secret poetry, mystical, poetry of the pain of the body, which aspires to abolish time and death, to touch the world so far untouched and unproven, with these words and with these chants that "make the abyss bloom."
Jacques Lacarrière, from the collection's preface.

I chose to cut piece by piece
The death that is rightfully mine
Piece by piece the eternity
So I can send him a sign
I can't have these words, tell him
containing the desert
I prefer raw pieces of the desert
That is rightfully mine
One on top of the other to set up my story
raw scream of matter
To contain, tell him
His last weeping
