In that dreadful space on earth
There was no mirror to wash
Face from dust with palm of water
The fishes had drunk all before perishing
...
I know where shall he go
Seven seas or oceans as he lives
In my heart of flesh and emotions deep
No gold I want but love forlorn

What shalt thou forget
The hands that rose in prayers as yet

The sweat of struggle on forehead
In difficulty as life under the sun
Warmth of sun god asking to move

Three men and some friends
In rusty environs across
The border when remembrance

When yesterday has turned
Into a dream for the memory
Childhood just gone

Darkness and deeply dug earth
The moon in full giving light
In the corners metallic garbage
Remeltable steel mixed with dust
...
If you reach home by the evening
And if you find some dried pieces of bread
Soaked in olive oil
And the fuming coffee that melts the ice
...
