Nikos Engonopoulos – Poems

About the Death of the Spanish Poet Federico Garcia Lorca on the 19th of August 1936 in the Ditch on Camino De La Fuente
…una accion vil y disgraciado
art and poetry don’t help us live
art and poetry help us
die
absolute disdain
fits
all noises
research
comments over comments
that often state
the unemployed vain writers
under mysterious and lewd conditions
of the execution of the fateful Lorca
by the fascists
but finally: everyone knows
that
for a long time
especially during these bad years
they make it a habit
of murdering
poets
