"Pegasi" Recognises and Honors Despina Kontaxis

Πράβι 100 χρόνια λεφτεριάς- Ενήμερος Παγγαίου

“Kaddish to a Life not Lived.”

After mounting two successful off-Broadway runs of Aeschylus’s Oresteia (2010), translated by Despina Kontaxis and Euripides’s Iphigenia in Tauris (2011), Leonidas Loizides’s acting troupe will return in the Fall of 2012 to present “Kaddish to a Life not Lived.” In this moving monologue, written by Michalis Kokkinaris, translated by Despina Kontaxis, and performed by Eftychia Loizidi, a Jewish woman named Sarah shares her final thoughts before being killed at Auschwitz. In unforgettable words, she mourns for the life that she will never live with the man she loves, the children she will never hold in her arms, and the simple dreams she will never see fulfilled.

I SEARCH FOR YOU

I search for you in the color of the moon.
In the light of the night.
At the silver clouds of the night sky.
At the moon rays
that company you at evenings…

In the street that tugs you.
In the silence that breaks your bones.
In the love that donates smiles.
In the desire that begins to plash
under the moonlight.

Silver cochleas the thoughts
mirror their passions.
Boats that waterslide the glances
they are waiting to cross the crowd
so that they will meet.

Sparks invest the the night sky.
Brushworks of light the night canvas
portray. Where are you?

The doubts beseechers
that are trying to get between us
and dispute turns the handle of loneliness.

The night carries secrets upon her shoulders
and the day counts meetings
upon her fingers.
The pebble of wish
encircles in her hand
and with its throw
the concentric rings
of hope forms.

Black silhouettes

Black silhouettes
are walking under the moonlight
so fast and absent minded
that they have almost not noticed
that the night has come.
The night unfolds her magic
and colors with silver brushes
their carefree auras.

These want to meet
secretly and to fold
into one another.
To commix like colours
on a white canvas
and create their own
locations.

Splashes of kisses,
splashes of strokes
touches long drawned out on the canvas
like on their bodies.
Creation.
Of kisses. Of colours. Of pratfalls.

ΣΕ ΑΝΑΖΗΤΩ…

Σε αναζητώ στο χρώμα της σελήνης.
Στο φως της νύχτας.
Στα ασημί σύννεφα του νυχτερινού ουρανού.
Στις φεγγαρένιες αχτίδες
που σε συντροφεύουν τα βράδια…

Στο δρόμο που σε συνοδεύει.
Στη σιωπή που κόκαλα τσακίζει.
Στην αγάπη που χαμόγελα χαρίζει.
Στην επιθυμία που αρχίζει και παφλάζει
κάτω από το φεγγαρόφως…

Ασημένιοι κοχλίες οι σκέψεις
αντανακλούν τα πάθη τους.
Καράβια που υδατοδρομούν οι ματιές
περιμένουν το πλήθος να διασχίσουν
ώστε να συναντηθούν.

Σπίθες επενδύουν το βραδινό ουρανό.
Πινελιές φωτός το νυχτερινό καμβά
ζωγραφίζουν. Πού είσαι;

Οι αμφιβολίες ικέτες
ανάμεσά μας να μπουν προσπαθούν
και η αμφισβήτηση το πόμολο της μοναξιάς γυρίζει.

Η νύχτα κουβαλά μυστικά στους ώμους της
κι η μέρα μετρά συναντήσεις
στα δάκτυλά της.
Το βότσαλο της ευχής
περικλείει στο χέρι της
και με τη ρίψη του
τους ομόκεντρους κύκλους
της ελπίδας σχηματίζει.
