The child is gone

Patision 31 and Stournari 100
15 Arachovis, 18 Tsimiski.
First floor George,
Angelopoulos in the sixth,
Antonakakis penthouse,
semi-basement Zervos.
With the Grim Reaper I roll the dice
for the next traffic light,
if the pizza wins a prize
and with it the driver.

And I dream at night that he flies
in the skies this old ducky,
and a voice over the city sings.
“He's gone! The child is gone!”
