Yannis Ritsos – Poems, Volume I

Flow

You found the lumberjack’s son under the trees

He wasn’t injured You took off his shoes

You cleaned the ants from his armpits He let you

You leaned your cheek on his belly He let you

You heard behind the cane fields on the opposite

bank that they were throwing their axes in the river
