Miltos Sachtouris – Collected Poems

VI
The neglected is the crucified soldier
the neglected one is the clock that stopped
the neglected one is the little branch that caught fire
the neglected one is the needle that broke
the neglected one is the bloomed Epitaphios
the neglected one is the hand which aimed
the neglected one is the wound that shivered
the neglected one is the kiss that got sick
the neglected one is the knife that missed its target
the neglected one is the mud which dried
the neglected one is the fever that went down
