(re)posing Angels

I'm in a meridional doze.
Heaving sighs of sweltering shadows and
lines pleating my face.

that pleasure of eating
what's in the vision
beams across this

daze. Up at the hour of
duskiness just when her mighty
voice gave rise to my jitters.

'Rise up, look out'.
Who are you?' I'm cuddled
by your fever.

and then I swell, sweeping your way.




in power and pride we rise with you. in present memory, dedicated to Maya Angelou.

The one(s) I love

Difference is everywhere.  Inside ourselves and beyond.

In a name, a person, a day, a smile.

In front of me, behind us, right next to you.

All we must do is look, pay attention and listen with respect.

Η διαφορτικότητα είναι παντού. Μέσα μας και πέρα.

Σε ένα όνομα, ένα άτομο, μια μέρα, ένα χαμόγελο.

Μπροστά μου, πίσω μας, ακριβώς δίπλα σου.

Το μόνο που έχουμε να κάνουμε είναι να κοιτάξουμε, να δώσουμε προσοχή και ν’ακούσουμε με σεβασμό.
