Lost Homeland

Dimitris Tsoubas

Free Verse
The lost homeland

Man without freedom
eagle with wings grasped
Sun brings drought
Suddenly a rain
grass to be watered
life to find
Sun now coward
ephemeral pleasures
they disappear like smoke
strange weather
New order in society
technocrats hold fast
the sacred bones of our ancestors crackle
The ideals of glorious history
today painted on gray canvas
they disappeared instantly
technology sucked them up
there is no hope left
in the tunnel of life we ​​may find a ray of light
but everything is steam
the elite have already made up their minds for the world
Homeland Atlantis..
