Once the center of a thriving Roman empire
Palatine Hill still stands silently
majestically
a former home of emperors
conquerors
of the known world
chipped alabaster idols whisper
about ancient days
amid marble columns leaning sidewise
the Circus Maximus gazes
at the palatial structures
with their underground mazes
the birthplace of Romulus
Rome’s legendary founder
near
the Triclinium Domus Flavia’s marble floors
remnants of glory gone in long ago wars
***
they’re a siren’s call to mystery and intrigue
laced with meanings from a special colleague
coded words that creep into conversations
secrets exchanged between rival nations
words so fraught with hidden meaning
can also contain something demeaning
peeling away layers of deep mistrust
that if decoded could easily combust
turning a questionably civilized society
into a maelstrom of vicious impropriety
