I like conversations where I don’t have to think about what to say. It just comes naturally.

Ήρθε.
Και φώτισε την καταπακτή μου.
Κι' έγινε φως. Ήταν ο ουρανός; Δεν ξέρω.
Ένα μόνο ξέρω
Πως έχασα τη γη.

Underrated Female Ruler
• Empress Theodora of the Byzantine Empire
Theodora,empress, and wife of the emperor Justinian I, was probably the most powerful woman in Byzantine history. Her intelligence and political strategy made her Justinian’s most trusted adviser and enabled her to use the power and influence of her office to promote religious and social policies that favoured her interests.
Theodora is remembered as one of the first rulers to recognize the rights of women, passing strict laws to prohibit the traffic in young girls and altering the divorce laws to give greater benefits to women.This represented unparalleled social mobility for women at the time. It gave many women access to power.
Before becoming empress, she had once been a concubine in the service of one of these provincial governors. She knew only too well the kind of power these men had over women.
That's why she spent much of her reign trying to mitigate the laws against the miaphysites. She saw to it that women could own and inherit property, which was quite a breakthrough because it gave daughters and wives real social power.
Σ’ έχουν ακούσει τα κύματα πως χαϊδεύεις,
πως φιλάς, πως λες ψιθυριστά το «τι» και το «ε.»
Πάντα εμείς το φως κι η σκιά.
