Pills and thrills indeed, and it is an awesome poem.
Do you happen to know the English poet Charles Bryant? He is the only modern day Britain poet I know. He likes to write on ancient times and to retranslate Cavafy’s poetry. He and I exchanged letters in 2005. This is one of his retranslations I love:
