  • Natural boundaries
    The end of all rainbows Where mightiness ends Where mightier no longer lends itself To prolonging Rome. Let clefts  And shelves and sheets and seas  And peaks and marshes rank with disease  Mark borders, beyond which no Roman feet  No roman fleets  No roman steels Shall seek to steal Or impose leanmaking tithes  A screaming… Read more: Natural boundaries

Amidst scree, portions of faces yet pristine A remarkable austerity What of once-golden Rome Time permitted posterity The wind remembers when walls blocked this easy passage.
