Art Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Art



As great in Art
So in Science
Let be as great:
Though great always be
Relative.

See
What we request
Is what we need
Not of vindictiveness
But of necessity
Not of hate
But of the desire to
Heal wounds
Desire
To make happy
Where for years
Suffered
Had distress
Misery
See
See
Now Justice need be done
And there is no other
Way
No, no other way.
A Prospect where we ask
Ask the necessary
Do not ask for not what
Is not ours
But ask conservatively
Ask for us
For what is ours

You
Have the power to
Rise
You have the need
To rise
You have the duty.
You
That have the
Gold of wisdom
Before you
Take it now
And be you
The first to light the flame
In History:
In another hundred years
History will light that flame
All the same
And you
You will have lost the chance
Of being the first
To light the torch in History
The first to lead the way
To our Earth
To History.
Do not lose the chance!
