Foxes are lonely, smart and protective

creatures, in terms of themselves and their families

their. Also "they laugh when no one sees them", as

says jokingly Charilaos Nikolaidis in

his poetic collection "Fox on the Highway". A

a collection that analyzes the world with a fox's eye.

So in these eyes are the headlights of cars

seem threatening and unknown lights, as once in

man imagined menacingly the lights of nature, the

comets, lightning, etc. The fox praises man for

the fence that saves her life from being found

faced with these lights, like the first man

glorified an unknown god who flew comets from him

sky. A story of the reduction of the uncle to something unknown that

perhaps repeated from the beginning of their existence

beings. The fox born from the tree, its symbol

nature, transforms into man and observes him

his world with her own eyes. The macrocosm in which

we live is at the same time the microcosm of a larger one

world, a vast universe full of stories that perhaps

repeated in an evolutionary loop.
