coins
I'm on my way to Rome to see
the paintings of Caravaggio
in the San Luigi dei Francesi
I am not sure if there is a God
but a small prayer will do no harm
- keep you modest and humane -
they have a box there
in which you must put a coin
to turn the lights on
I am not sure if beauty is eternal
but for the time being
some small change can be bliss
