Cataclysm 5 - Καταλυσμός 5 Poem by Kostas Lagos

Cataclysm 5 - Καταλυσμός 5

Rating: 5.0


The cries! The cries!

sinners sing their lies

the air is thick

poison we breath

like a smell of sulfur

the horror spreads, the terror

whole earth is quaking

the moon, the stars are fading

darkness reigns

a structure of pains



Οι κραυγές! Οι κραυγές!

οι αμαρτωλοί τραγουδούν ψευτιές

βαρύς αέρας

δηλητηριώδης αιθέρας

σαν θειούχος οσμή

απλώνεται ο τρόμος, φόβου ορμή

τρέμει ολόκληρη η γη

σβήνουν τα άστρα, η σελήνη μένει σκοτεινή

τα ερέβη φέρουν στέμμα των αρχόντων

οικοδόμημα των πόνων

Pollution everywhere, but the next pandemic may be worse. A good 5* poem Kostas.
