Europa - a dream

Zeus the conqueror
raped violenty Europa -
King Minos judged
the dead in Hades

Grecian democracy
lasted ten years
otherwise wars
ravaged Europa

Ever since so
is it a wonder
that people dream
of peaceful Europa

Europe split again
Britain and now
Italy's democracy
scatters the chimera

Rodina - the bear cub
claps her hands
hopes for the incubus
of self-loathing of Europe

and old hatred -  fear -
the "others" - strangers
the mirage of the desert
splintered Europa
