Poems by Constantine Cavafy
Manuel Komninos

He Vows
... of the body that wants and demands, he returns, ...

... that already some people (without enough training) ...

... Your soul seeks other things, weeps for other things ...

... .. Ah the delight of nude bodies, above all ...
One Of Their Gods
... into the shadows and into the lights of the evening, ...

... Blameless, even if Diaeos and Critolaos were at fault ...
