Cabaret Of Night Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Minerva organized
The Cabaret of Night
All day preparations
Went on
By red dusk
So intensified.

Spirits, nymphs,
Sileni and fauns,
Dryads and one-eyed
Figures and the rest
Onto the garden
Stamped

The Orchestra
Was played by Hedgehogs.

The nightingales were
The special singers at the
Cabaret.

Bacchanalians served wine
Clothed in green.

Clanked pitchers, rose glasses
Voices loud as the night
Deepened

And the venue was
Fair Hastings Gardens.
