Volcano

By Christos Tsagkaris

Once upon a time a philosopher walked towards the mountain so as to have a discussion.

“Why this smoke and this fire…? What are you saying to us?”

We have not seen him again since then… And those of us who climbed the mountain to find him discovered our mountain did not have a top but rather a huge hole, and numerous voracious caves started from there leading to the depths of the earth.

Where is the philosopher? We really don’t know.

We can only imagine him strolling around the caves, trying hopelessly to find the silent lord of the volcano.
