Mad Mirrors - Part C (87) Poem by Raquel Angel Nagler

UNTITLED
QUOTE: 'The child from Vietnam with the cut leg. The other leg is inside my heart...It becomes a word, my tomorrow's voice' - N. Vrettakos

You lend your voice to the voiceless:
The footprint of the little leg
Walking inside your sadness.


UNTITLED
QUOTE: 'Thankfully, my heart is pierced by the gazes of children' - N. Vrettakos

My heart is pierced
By gazes, by touches,
As if it were the only way
They could get in.
Sometimes I'm thankful about it,
Sometimes I'm not.


UNTITLED
QUOTE: 'I'll ask Picasso how many doves he has still unpainted in his soul' - N. Vrettakos

One day I'll tell Chagall:
Your little fiddlers
Have taught my eyes
How to hear.
