POEM BY KATERINA GOGOU

SEASONS WILL COVER ME

Love is of a diaphanous white color  

and its body in the shape of benediction

and in the smoke

this horse searches

to take away its dead rider

Whether ancient or modern

I believe

the seasons will cover me

in a way that I won’t feel hungry

nor thirsty

and I won’t write poems anymore

only, Lord, homeland of the stars, I beg you

dress me in the white diaphanous color and

grace me with the body of Your benediction.

Do I ask for too much?
