Meeting
Slave and his master, accidental
liaison nobody wants to live forever.
Teach me, dear master how to be free. I can’t,
tells him, life is not equal for everybody.
How can you try to defend something so dark,
I know is hard, is a debt as we men need
work, every bread you eat is paid with mine blood
I need you, you need me, to break this order,
is to crack the Cosmos. Stay here, stop dreaming.
Marcus turned toward the vineyards: felt happiness.
