ΦΘΙΝΟΠΩΡΙΝΟ ΡΕΦΡΑΙΝ

 

Χάρης Βλαβιανός

Ὅταν πέσουν καὶ τὰ τελευταῖα φύλλα
θὰ ἐπιστρέψουμε ἐπιτέλους στὸν γνωστό, οἰκεῖο χῶρο μας,
τὸ πολύτιμο αὐτὶ ἄσυλο
ποὺ τὸ ἐξαντλημένο σῶμα ἄφησε ἀνολοκλήρωτο
γιὰ τὶς ἀνάγκες μιᾶς ἀναπόφευκτης γνώσης.

Εἶναι δύσκολο, σχεδὸν ἀδύνατο,
νὰ ἐπιλέξεις καὶ τὸ ἐπίθετο ἀκόμη
ποὺ θὰ ἔδινε κάποιο νόημα
σ’ αὐτὴ τὴν κενὴ ψυχρότητα,
τὴν ἀναίτια θλίψη,
ποὺ ἁπλώνεται ἀργά-ἀργά, σταθερά,
διαβρώνοντας τὶς πιὸ κρυφὲς ἐσοχὲς τῆς ζωῆς σου

Adventurers love them, explorers devise them, and everyone uses them – maps.

From cave paintings to ancient maps of Babylon, Greece, and Asia, through the Age of Discovery (15th – 17th century) up until today, people have created and used maps as the essential tools to help them define, explain, and navigate their way through the world.
