In The Courtroom-Σε Αίθουσα Δικαστηρίου(Danse Macabre 4) Poem by Kostas Lagos
In The Courtroom-Σε Αίθουσα Δικαστηρίου(Danse Macabre 4)
In the courtroom
brother against brother
for some acres of land
Judges, prosecutors
and lawyers in action!
The verdict is announced,
one celebrates
the other swears.
But on the bench
Death laughs
sharpening
his sickle
for both
arguing sides
Σε αίθουσα δικαστηρίου
αδελφός εναντίον αδελφού
για ένα κομμάτι γης
Δικαστές, εισαγγελείς
και δικηγόροι σε δράση!
Η απόφαση βγαίνει,
ο ένας πανηγυρίζει
ο άλλος βρίζει.
Μα στην έδρα
ο Θάνατος γελά
ακονίζοντας
το δρεπάνι του
για τις δυο
αντιμαχόμενες πλευρές
An appalling scene but it is one of the realities of life. Brother against brother due to greediness. A brilliant poem beautifully crafted and well executed.10
Judgment is nigh. A poem that sends shivers up the spine.+++10
Brothers fight for a piece of land in modern society as we see. Death laughs and provokes thought sometimes. This poem is sensitive and thought provoking. An amazing poem is definitely very brilliantly penned.

This often happens even among brothers when the question of wealth and money comes in between! It is very unfortunate! This overriding greed leads to blood shed and even murder! A very realistic picture!
People can find millions of causes to kill each other.Money is the most popular one.Even among brothers.Thank you for your comment.
