Marbles....

Incomplete.
Untied.... uncertain stories with faceless tales.
Never a stone placed so distant.
Remains the pieces, remains the same.
Owned by none, no maker or mason
just the bureaucracy of a selfish nation.
A historical text out of context....
Take them home to where they belong.
The purpose they serve
forgotten.
A moment in time, frozen.

  3. I do not think that all english are horrible. But those who keep the marbles in a Museum much far from where it should be,in order to to "keep it safe from polution",yes, they are horrible. Everything happens for profit, so... On the other hand...maybe something like Parthenon Marbles,needs to be protected by certain horrible greeks who would do anything for profit.
