I sat beside you on a sofa
on an inclined plane
I sat on its lowest side
on purpose
waiting for you to roll over
but you held up well on the upper side
and that made me look at the sky
and wish the earth was vertical
[taken from my second book "I saw the day only in the crowd", released in 2012 in the Greek language (Gavriilides Publications), self-translated in English]
