Grief! Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Grief!



That was what I heard
traveling from
Ghargur to old Valletta.

Grief!

that was what echoed in my brain.

thought that followed on thought
in Dantesque train.

that night I slept
it rained
and thunder woke me

through the window-panes
the white light flashed
over me and went.

I woke in terror.

Grief!
