from Culmine (May 21, 2011):
“I thought that if I ran as fast as I could, I would smash into the fence. And even if it didn’t break, I would have no regrets. Even if the pigs’ bullets halted my progress, even if the fabric of my coat got caught in the barbed wire and they arrested me, even if I took off my coat but didn’t manage to get through all the strands of barbed wire. And the barbed wire would split and rust, but the strands would remain. They would form an outline of me; a reminder that even today there are still people fighting for revolution; a living representation of someone who ran purposefully toward freedom instead of surrendering to the silence and resignation that typify our era; a pure image from the future, from a better world.”
Dedicated to the comrade wounded during the shootout with the pigs in Pefki.
From prison, with all our heart, we send you our total solidarity and support.
