Dystopia - Δυστοπία Poem by Kostas Lagos

Dystopia - Δυστοπία

Rating: 5.0


A landscape of mechanical spiders

left to rust

Bathing under the rays of a greyish sun

turning to dust

Passengers on the future's train running

towards the past

A rain of acid is falling from the sky

seems it will last

Chronometers are counting our time down

you know they must





Τοπίο μηχανικών αραχνώνπου αφέθηκαν

απλά να σκουριάζουν

Λουζόμαστε στις ακτίνες ήλιου γκριζωπού

που θα ξεθωριάσουν

Επιβάτες του τρένου του μέλλοντος τρέχουν

στο παρελθόν να φτάσουν

Όξινες ψιχάλες πέφτουν απ' τον ουρανό

αργά θα μας κάψουν

Χρονόμετρα το χρόνο αντίστροφα μετρούν

αυτό πρέπει να πράξουν
