“Ἐσεῖς ποὺ βρήκατε τὸν ἄνθρωπό σας
κι ἔχετε ἕνα χέρι νὰ σᾶς σφίγγει τρυφερά,
ἕναν ὦμο ν᾿ ἀκουμπᾶτε τὴν πίκρα σας,
ἕνα κορμὶ νὰ ὑπερασπίζει τὴν ἔξαψή σας,
κοκκινίσατε ἄραγε γιὰ τὴν τόση εὐτυχία σας,
ἔστω καὶ μία φορά;
Εἴπατε νὰ κρατήσετε ἑνὸς λεπτοῦ σιγή
γιὰ τοὺς ἀπεγνωσμένους;”

“In 1553, Santiago de Cuba was invaded and plundered by the French. They were followed by the British, led by Sir Christopher Myngs in 1662-1663. The British considered him an Admiral, but to the Spanish he was a pirate, when he broke through the strong Spanish defenses to plunder and sack the city. Santiago lost its status as the capitol of Cuba, when the seat of power was moved to Havana in 1589, but many people to this day, feel that it is still the capitol city when it comes to culture. Of course, anyone from La Habana would vehemently disagree with this!”

“I long for you; I who usually longs without longing, as though I am unconscious and absorbed in neutrality and apathy, really, utterly long for every bit of you.”
