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

On reading, in the public papers, the Laureate’s Ode, with the other parade of June 4th, 1786, the Author was no sooner dropt asleep, than he imagined himself transported to the Birth-day Levee: and, in his dreaming fancy, made the following Address:
- Robert Burns: Address Of Beelzebub: To the Right Honourable the Earl of Breadalbane, President of the Right Honourable and Honourable the Highland Society, which met on the 23rd of May last at the Shakespeare, Covent Garden, to concert ways and means to frustrate the designs of five hundred Highlanders, who, as the Society were informed by Mr. M’Kenzie of Applecross, were so audacious as to attempt an escape from their lawful lords and masters whose property they were, by emigrating from the lands of Mr. Macdonald of Glengary to the wilds of Canada, in search of that fantastic thing-Liberty.
