1. 3. Moscow - Ouranoupolis. I like you

Reality – again! –
     is full of crosses,
Don’t bet on dreams –
     they have an iron curtain,
The Mount bursts in tears,
         and I’m scared.

Let's face the truth:
     I like you.
         Mou aresis…*

Above abyss,
     the Elders’ chant’s salvation.
I’m holding on
     to those birds, which dare
escape from jail
     of cages in my notes,
to reach the monks
     in time to get some air,
that one of Paradise,
     the common air there,
while Mummy’s
     getting sadder
            every day…
At night,
     She goes down wearing slippers,
we meet each other
     on the phantom border,
and, bowing
     at ships, and fish, and others,
the Blessed sits still sighing –
     daughter’s wounded! –
She pities me,
     the wingless one.

Who else?

...The clock alarm…

I like you.
   Mou aresis…

The Mount bursts in tears
       and will be drowned,
since those birds,
   returning to the cages,
have brought
   a sack of prophecies,
       my darling…
