FRUIT-LEAF-ROOTS-flowers
by kapardeli eftichia
Memories
nothing leaves nothing comes
marks on the rocks
who stayed
Joined the lake bottom, forever
The house in the poplars
our voice taller
pups on foliage
companions foreign languages
the roar of the wind lost
Write Names in Heaven
with throws of birds
light trap in circles
the affection of a quiet day
With hands dig the earth
soil that never slept
next to the thorns beside the ruin
hit with power vein
look for payment
But I do not bear fruit this year
the tree of patience
with bent twigs
flowers are not pulled
thirst for life
Leaves, fruits, roots, blossoms

- Robert Burns: Halloween: The following poem will, by many readers, be well enough understood; but for the sake of those who are unacquainted with the manners and traditions of the country where the scene is cast, notes are added to give some account of the principal charms and spells of that night, so big with prophecy to the peasantry in the west of Scotland. The passion of prying into futurity makes a striking part of the history of human nature in its rude state, in all ages and nations; and it may be some entertainment to a philosophic mind, if any such honour the author with a perusal, to see the remains of it among the more unenlightened in our own.-R.B.
