Zissimos Lorenzatos: What Remains…

All these matters, great and small, which torment us or occupy us and trouble our minds, day and night, with the small—the infinitesimally small—fraction of truth which the world can contain: what do they amount to for man at the critical moment? And what do we leave behind us? When you put everything together within yourself and sum it up—prophecy, mysteries, knowledge, faith (yes, even faith)—what finally remains, in this world, apart from Love?  What is left, even of those countless worlds that circle endlessly ‘in limitless space’ in the universe, as the Zakynthian poet Kalvos says:

The storm clouds have fled on the wind,

never and nowhere to be found.
