short feature narrative you may turn on the volume to advance just click your “mouse”
when we met on the way we used to put tangerine peels on our eyes so our resistance would grow against the pains… says Haris Alexiou, in her song “Odos Aritetolous” which I’ve tought “Kitrini Poli” - on the other passionate shore where the sun sinks in the waters every evening and with the black and white keys of her piano takes me to the heart of an old street to a black and white photograph with notched edges
wonder what has happened after all the years to the eye lids on which tangerine peels rested once upon a time the childhood which was bound to end and be drawn apart yet to the only true love of all lifetime what has been shown to those two pairs of eyes what hasever been denied to those two pairs of eyes to see while endless rain falls on the cheeks
and who once more puts on another’s eye has burned with love to put the peels of another tangerine so resistance would grow against the pains in how many seconds in how many blinks pass the long gone years while barren cheeks and bags under the eyes long for the unfalling rain when grown-ups may not see the past may children see the yet to come
when we met on the way we used to put tangerine peels on our eyes so our resistance would grow against the pains… my eyes too are closed listening to Muammer Ketencoglu’s song in a room where a lamp does not need to glow
an old street outside April rain passionate Ankara shore at its edge
