Lovech
The town of Lovech (Bulgaria), there was a concentration camp called sarcastically "Sunny
Beach". There are imprisoned without trial of people with democratic beliefs. The camp was
closed by the then communist regime, because
violations of law, heavy duty and assault, but no one has been held criminally liable.
Lovech
This town is
like a hollow of kid.
No, we won’t stay more than
that much.
Than a fragrance of lilacs.
Than a river somewhere going.
Than a stone fortress staying against somebody.
Than a cross fixed into
(in memory).
Yes, we will stay.
That much.
Author notes
Thanks on behalf of of the few survivors who broke into tears after reading this poem,
because there are none to remember them.
