Nikos Engonopoulos – Poems

The Flag
don’t disregard love
the crying eyes aren’t beautiful
however, don’t delay:
you’ll come back soon, won’t you?
each time I dare something
that cloud of hope comes
with white and soft rosy tricky lace.
Be serious:
it’s impossible to set the guillotine daily
slowly your hair will turn white:
white flag.
The other flag is the sign
that you give up and that the castles
tumble forever
