Roman Journey: Finale


fireworks

after making
love
we slip
out
on to the
terrace
the sky
is
glooming bright
your breasts
cool
my face
burning
our hearts
aglow
time running
out
across the
Tiber
fireworks
one by one
shoot
canonades
of green
red and
white
into the
Roman sky

is this
how this
story ends?

is this
how our
story ends?
