Centuries Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Centuries



They were feasting
But centuries old
ago
For
On them
They had
The costumes of centuries ago.


The milk seeped through
The grey rocks
Ledge on ledge
The waters mixed
With milk.

Outside
The band played
Inside
They slept and
Dreamt.

The band! What
Gruesome band!
A hedgehog, lizard
Toad and
The rest!

Centuries whirred round
Ageing
Out of breath
Stopped momentarily
