The Civilization Of The Cemetery Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

The Civilization Of The Cemetery



The civilization of the cemetery
There be so many cemeteries
And that be the civilization of
Them all.

I for that civilization yearn
After being somewhat in the
Civilization of the light.

For so many yearn for alternative
After the experience of a thing:
I was in light, suffered from
The civilization of the light
Disappointed, depart.
And so yearn I for
The civilization of the cemetery.
