    EPIGRAPH: Today is Sunday. Today they let me out into the sun for the first time And for the first time in my life I stood immovable Amazed at how distant the sky was How vast, How blue Respectfully I sat down on the ground Leaned my back against the wall At this moment No falling into revolting waves at all At this moment no thoughts Of struggle Of freedom Of my wife. The soil, the sun and me... I am happy.
