The Soul Will Get You Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

The Soul will get you
The Soul will get you
The Inner Soul
Thus said the Voice
Thus said the Power that itself
Hid
Hear!
There was the Cry
The Scream
The Shout
I turned my head around
Around
Around
There was once a City -
Still it be a City
And on it the nights are loud
Loud
Loud
Loud in the eerie silence.
Look here
Look your Emotion bathe
In the Ganges of Forgetfulness
Thus the Song Ancient sings:
Thus in the Monastic Yard
More words of Wisdom from High
The heavens must utter
The heavens shall utter
The windows opened on the Yard
When dusk was still here.
