ESPETXEKO HAIKUAK/JAILHOUSE HAIKUS
5.There’s shouting coming
from outside the prison walls.
Climb to the window.
Thousands of people
surrounding the whole prison.
Solidarity.
Surrounded like this,
the prison itself could be
a prisoner now.

ESPETXEKO HAIKUAK/JAILHOUSE HAIKUS
5.
Oihuak datoz
murruen bestaldetik.
Igo leihora.
Mila bat lagun
kartzela inguratzen.
Elkartasuna.
Inguratuta,
espetxea bera da
orain presoa.
