The Signs as Cavafy lines

I think of Cavafy as a “poet’s poet.” But really, everyone should read him. He’s a Greek Taurus. And sensual, and super emotional. Almost all he does is reminisce!

These lines are from the Rae Dalven translations of his work. I prefer them to the others because they are so accessible, and beautiful, and everyday.

Hope this leads you to more Cavafy readin…
