Level Upon Level Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

level upon level of
trees
winding gorges
between Earth and Heaven
wondrous sight
that unfurled in the Dawn
I passed a restless night.

strategy
wall
upon
strategy
wall
the air I heard is sweet
tonight.

for I
I
am forged
to hear in the caves
of my Soul
all these whisperings
these accomplices
in my ear tell
then
my heart writes
on its own Tables
speaks with brain
and
wane the city lights
the waters of blue dams
all
all
between earth and
heaven
mazed
Ladder to the edge
of
the heavens immense
and
from the heavens immense
ladder to the earth
glowing.
