Forgive Me Forgive Me Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Forgive me
Forgive me
For
My raw and heavy words
Forgive me
Forgive me for my sad dreariness
For my critique of Earth
For my strong words
But
Once we come unto the Earth
All of us merit who have done
Something:
Even the least is a child of the Earth.
Nobody.
Over no human
The curtain of the Earth must fall.
Over no human
Must cruel oblivion its heavy cloths
Lay
And cover the faces of her sleeping
Children
They sleep and now their works
The Earth must uncover and
Promote:
Otherwise Earth does them injustice
And
More Earth does injustice to herself.
And her other children.
