Pigeons Of Desire Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Pigeons Of Desire



Pigeons of desire
Across the water-spuming front
The irate rocks desire
Desire as the pigeons desire

And instead
Of seagulls circling round there
Be seagulls in a dim light of
Centuries.

For by descent, descendants
Extend over the centuries and
In as proportion direct
The light of an ancestor
Grows
Dim
Dim
Dim
