I hide behind simple things so you’ll find me,

if you don’t find me, you’ll find the things,

if you don’t find me, you’ll find the things,
if you don’t find me, you’ll find the things,
you’ll touch what my hand has touched,
you’ll touch what my hand has touched,
Our hand-prints will merge. —Yannis Ritsos, translated by Edmund Keeley
